audition song... Stage Version Vs. Film Version
so I'm auditioning for a Highschool show, and we have to pick our own song. I'm having a really weird issue, because we sing 16 bars and so I printed a sample copy of the song I want to sing so I wouldn't have to pay, but now I'm running into an issue.
SO I'm going to be auditioning with one of Nancy's parts in It's a Fine Life. I printed from a website musicnotes,and it didn't say so on the website, but it is from the movie and not the stage show...I found another version from the stage show, problem is if I wanted that I'd have to actually buy it to get the lyrics I need. I don't wanna have to do that if I don't have to, because it's $6 and I'm going to use it once. There's some instrumental parts in the beginning that isn't in the apparent movie version...
so I wanna know, for those of you experienced with theatre auditions, if it is a problem to use a song from a movie musical instead of a Broadway stage musical.
I'm not sure if I sound dumb, I'm just paranoid, lol.

Maybe give some free advice about: Theater?
I don't have an answer for you. And for all you know, rules may have changed since some older people were in HS. I was in HS choir but never auditioned for any plays. However I remember the choir teacher being approachable about anything music related and no question was dumb or stupid. So if it were me, I would ask my teacher if it would make a difference, even if your teacher is not involved in the play or show.
