Treasure Island (Audition HELP)

Alrighty, so I'm auditioning in a couple weeks for a production of Treasure Island : the musical. I'm a little shady on what to sing, as it's been awhile since I've had to go through songs to choose from. My last 2 auditions were Sondheim shows where we prepared songs from the show so everyone sang the same song and made it easier to narrow it down.

I'm not really familiar with this show, but I suspect it's the version shown on the site www.treasureislandthemusical.com.

I'm hoping to audition for Israel Hands, along with other characters perhaps. I'm not really sure what to sing.

My first instinct was "Fathoms Below" from the Little Mermaid. It's simple, pirate-esque, and shows I can sing. But I want something a little more expressive. I'm classified as a baritone (up to high A flat on a good day, usually a G).

Any help is appreciated :)
