Yeah I searched but I wanted to be more specific in looking for advice. As the title says, I am looking for an "old theatre" male audition song, ballad please (with some "money" notes). All the ones I know are the popular overdone ones so I need some help from you all! I'm a tenor. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Which ones have you already done or don't want. I would suggest no R&H unless its from Allegro or Pipe Dream, less known shows. And which era did you want specifically. If you want money note songs go for Gilbert and Sullivan. A lot music from the golden era male ballads are probably going to be for a baritone since they were the trend in leads, but tenors can still sing those songs because the do call for a more legit sound, more operatic, than a mix. I like "Stranger in Paradise" from Kismet and "I Have Dreamed" from The King and I, but those are somewhat popular. Whateve you pick, feel comfortable with it.
