Audition Song Advise

Next month I'm auditioning for two community productions (different companies), Oklahoma and Into the Woods. I'm more of a dancer than a singer or actor (serious ballet training) so I’m hoping for dream-sequence Laurie in Oklahoma. Into the Woods is a bit of a stretch since it’s so vocally demanding, but I’m 16 and 5', so I think I should try for Little Red Riding Hood (I’m pretty sure it matches vocally, and the casting notice said 10-16). I was thinking of singing the Trolley Song from Meet Me in St. Louis for both shows, since I know it really well and would be comfortable with it. Would this song be appropriate or not?

Little Red actually has to do a lot of singing. More in the mix of a mezzo-soprano nasal range. What other songs do you normally sing for auditions? Let's think of something to help!
