Sorry, what can I say? I am a straight girl, so perhaps you have better perspective?

How odd...I violently disagree( An exaggeration-I am a peaceful person ) with some of the posts.
1) I Definitely think Eden is the hottest Elphaba. Idina is somewhat hot, Stephanie Block is beautiful, and Shoshana is attractive.
This is for Benzy92-I am going to try, if somewhat inarticulately, to explain why I like Shoshana's singing:
I have seen both Shoshana and Idina and I definitely, 100 % prefer Shoshana's singing. Her voice is amazing. I love that I don't hear straining e

"Don’t do Sondheim in the general auditions (unless you’re over 40 and have been through what the lyrics imply,"
What about something(not Sondheim) that is written for an older woman but the situation could easily apply to a younger woman? for instance a song about being widowed?

Well, I'll leave the "Tom issue" debating up to the people who probably know more and/or feel more strongly about it than I do.
The thing that bugs me re: her and the sexual orientation is that after she came out she.. hmm I don't know how to say this- she certainly didn't let herself go but she stopped taking any sort of care with her physical appearence. Now the only reason this bothered me was b/c t it just re-enforced everyone's sterotypes of the Butch lesbian. I mean, it just bothers m

If he/she is not that into the musical theatre genre-I'm gonna go with RENT. Trust me, that is the only musical I have ever heard people who self-proclaimedly don't like musicals listen to. Plus, people won't think it's like a weird cd to own.
If they have expressed interest in musical theatre-then what everyone else said. Who really knows though people have such different tastes?

Yep erinrebecca nice guess, it's an equity show. Maybe I should have clairified sorry: I got the message two days ago that I got the part and was about to call back but then read this thread and had second thoughts.. I got to audition only b/c I knew the director from before so she put me on the list to audition and I had also told her previously that I wanted to join equity.
RE: my decision. The director is sort of my mentor in the acting world, so I called her back today and told her my c

Thanks jrb_actor and ShuQ, I am now re-considering. I'm sure I could use more experience.. I just figured it was a no-brainer-you get a chance to join equity and you do. I hadn't quite thought it the whole way through yet.
"If you are good, don't sweat it."- I guess that's the million dollar question..it's so hard to know as evertything is so subjective.

Well I saw it in 9th grade and I thought I was pretty damn savvy but it mostly went over my head. For example: I knew what AIDS was (obviously) but I didn't know what AZT was so I didn't get what was wrong with Mimi really. Also, I didn't have a sense of the AIDS culture in NY in the '80s so I remember thinking it was really stupid and melodramatic that everyone in the show was diseased.
I still thought it was beautiful though-so in short I agree w/luvtheemcee that your cousin might

Hold on-if you are young it is better to be non-equity?!?!?
Dammit, what if you just joined equity b/c you wanted to be in the union before you go to college in NY next year? I thought I should join before I go to NY b/c I had much better odds of getting an equity contract. HELP, I haven't finalized it yet someone tell me if I am about to make a mistake in joining!!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!

This is so funny I have the exact opposite problem of you!! I have a strong natural vibratto and I have been working on how to get rid of it when singing more contemporary songs! sorry-good luck, just had to post on the irony of it all.

Fanny Brice is my dream role....my school is sort of deciding whether or not to do it, the director has been talking/singing/reading pieces of it with me but is so HARD vocally-for me. I'm working really hard on it but cross your fingers for me.
