Me and my friend want to do a comedic duet for a showcase. We need a girl/girl duet that would work for a black girl and a white girl so no sister or mother daughter stuff would work. Anything you could think of would be really appreciated!
thanks

Posted: 6/27/09 at 6:50pm"Single Man Drought" from " I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change". There's a video on youtube. It's a great song! Please check it out! By the way- if that's you on your avatar then you are absolutely gorgeous! Good luck!

Posted: 6/30/09 at 11:24amthis is exactly what you WEREN'T asking for, taken to another level, which is what makes it funny: "I Will Never Leave You" from SIDESHOW. Just a thought.

Well...not to sound preachy or anything, but this is theatre, race differences shouldn't matter at all in this sort of thing.
But I digress...Here are a few:
Bosom Buddies - Mame (Jerry Herman)
There's Always a Woman - Anyone Can Whistle (Sondheim)
My Best Friend - The Wild Party (LaChiusa)
They all have the same theme, but are all great duets.

Posted: 7/9/09 at 9:21pmI would go with "There's Always a Woman" as Larcen26 mentioned.

Posted: 8/7/09 at 2:13pmOoh, you could do Secondary Characters from [tos] if you find a way to end it. Other duets that come to mind are For Good, What is this Feeling, I Know Him so Well, and any of the numerous duets from Chicago. If you search the forum, you'll find many threads on female duets.
