Yeaa, im auditioning for Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, and im hoping for the role of Wonka himself. Im preparing 'pure imagination'. Now, the character description says that it can be, and often is, a double gender role. But my question is, when i sing the high notes, should i belt them or use my head voice? Because if i use my head voice, its more accurate, but im scared i sound to... girly, even though its double gender, the character is adressed as 'Mr. Wonka'. If i belt it it may be off but sound lower. Any advice?
