Okay, I know that sometimes posts like these get annoying and most people are like "Hey, do it on your own!" But this is a lot easier. I'm auditioning for a production of Cabaret next week and I have NO IDEA what to sing. Not a song comes to mind, not one, my mind has drawn a blank. So, if anyone could mention a song or a show that I could choose a song from then I would greatly appreciate it. I really have absolutely no idea. So, please help!
By the way, I'm going out for Cliff.

Posted: 2/25/05 at 1:37pmI don't know why, Trevor Graydon comes to mind when I think of Cliff. I know that this is Jimmy's song, but how about "What Do I Need With Love" from Thoroughly Modern Millie.

Mister Cellophane would be good. Maybe even some of Billy Flynn's songs.
Other Kander & Ebb songs would be great.

Posted: 2/25/05 at 2:52pmFind out which version of the script they are using. I am currently playing Cliff (opening on Wednesday) and we are using the 1987 revival and so the 1966 song Why Should I Wake Up was cut and the 1987 version uses the song, Don't Go. So if you find out which version you could use the opposite Cliff song. Both have been published and they have the same vocal range.

All I care aobut is Love from Chicago would be a great song.
I'd also look at Kander and Ebb's Kiss of the Spider Woman for other options.
Good Luck mywonderwa11

That is a good idea, Trey
Cabaret, Chicago, and Kiss of the Spider Woman are Kander & Ebb's most well known pieces.

Posted: 2/25/05 at 3:03pmoh and, "Sometimes A Day Goes By" is a great Kander and Ebb song from Woman of the Year! You could also try that one
