Hello. I am looking for suggestions for a great competition large group musical number for 16 singer/actor/dancers.
I have had a lot of success with my last three large groups which were
- "Toledo Surprise"/Drowsy Chaperone
- "Step in Time"/Mary Poppins
- "We're in the Money"/42 Street
All three won Best in Show Large Group.
I am open to any and all suggestions.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

Are you more interested in a large group number that features singing and dancing (like the three you've listed)? Or are you also considering numbers that might offer opportunities for creative staging in a competition situation?
If you're open to the second option:
* The Launching from Titanic
* Penny A Tune from Rags
* Hold Back The Night from Metropolis
Otherwise:
* Good Times Are Here To Stay from Dames At Sea
* I Got Rhythm from Crazy For You
* We Dance from Once On This Island
* Everybody Dance from Steel Pier
* The Wrong Note Rag from Wonderful Town
