So I'm leaving for Ithaca this weekend and they told us recently that we need to bring the script of the musicals that our audition songs are from. This was a challenge for "Carnival" but I actually found it - so my ballad is ready to go.
Heres my problem - My uptempo was "You've Got Possibilities" from "It's a Bird, It's a Plane...". Well, that musical was never printed and I've been through hell and back trying to get the rights to copy the one at the Lincoln Center library but they wont let me.
So I need to choose another uptempo song that I can find the libretto to - hopefully sometime before I completely lose my mind.
Sorry if this is an overdone thread but I desperately need suggestions!!!!!!!!

I used Honeybun fron South Pacific for my last audition and got really positive feedback.

Oh, I need an upbeat audition song! SarahBeth, what voice part are you? I don't know South Pacific that well. I might look over that song though.

I usually sing Soprano but I do Alto sometimes. That song sat comfortably for my voice. I wouldn't consider it a Soprano song though. I also wouldn't choose it if you want to showcase a range.
