I really did a search and all I could find were m/m or m/f duets threads. It's for my students and I'm out of ideas. Please no suggestions from Rent or Wicked! Thanks for your help!
omg there are so many amazing ones.
Ohio- from Wonderful Town
who will love me as I am- from side show
Like everyone else- from side show
One boy- from Bye Bye Birdie
Class- from Chicago
What did I ever see in Him- from Bye Bye Birdie
Way back to Paradise- from Marie Christine (this one is really difficult but soo beautiful)
You could do No One is Alone from into the woods as a duet.
oh man.. if you need a more specific one like for voice parts or themes, PM me..
In His Eyes(Jekyll & Hyde) is always a great one.
I Know Him So Well(Chess)
I Still Believe(Miss Saigon)
There is also a beautiful duet in the second act of Closer Than Ever.
Thank you so much. Please keep them coming!
Well, of course there's For Good.
Take Me or Leave Me (Rent)
Some Things are Meant to Be-Little Women
How the Other Half Lives-TMM
a fantastic song called The grass is always greener.. mm.. I think its from Woman of the Year..
I'm singing In His Eyes for my choral concert.
Our Little World from Into the Woods. It's usually cut from the production, but it's Rapunzel's "big" song.
I hate "our little world". If you're gonna do a song from Into the Woods, do "On the Steps of the Palace" (its hard) or "No one is alone" (you can make it a duet).
No One is Alone is between Cinderella and the Baker?
But...
Marry the Man Today from Guys and Dolls is funny. I'm performing that in my musical theatre class today actually haha
The bakers part in No one is alone is high enough that a girl could sing it in a duet without changing the key.
'A Boy Like That/I Have A Love' from West Side Story, especially if you have a really great belter and an amazing soprano
Marry the Man Today-Guys and Dolls (but its mega overdone)
Bossom Buddies-Mame
Some Things are Meant to Be-Little Women
Love Me as I am-Side Show
Class-Chicago
I cant think of any more

How about "My Own Best Friend" from Chicago?
Stepsister's Lament - Cinderella
We Make a Perfect Pair - Shenendoah
Little Me - Little Me
Every Day a Little Death - A Little Night Music
If We Never Meet Again - Rags
Baby Dream Your Dream - Sweet Charity
Or, there's always:
Angel Of Music - The Phantom of the Opera
And I second The Grass Is Always Greener...it is from Woman of the Year, and it's hysterical!
I'm pretty sure you could make There's Gotta Be Something Better Than This from Sweet Charity into a duet.
I don't remember where it was from. But some college did Tick Tick Boom with a cast of around 15-20 people. And they made Come to Your Senses a duet with mega harmony. It sounded incredible. (Although I'm not quite sure how legal it was....hm) But if I find it, I'll post it!
Baby, Dream Your Dream - Sweet Charity
Nowadays - Chicago
You could do

I Don't Know His Name - She Loves Me
Their is a great song called Poor Sweet Baby from Snoopy the Musical, its a solo but you can turn it into a duet.
Hes the Wiz can always be one singer and a backup vocalist(lots of shoo bopping in that one)
Joy of MotherHood from Honk is a personal favorite
