A friend and I are auditioning for a musical revue, and we need a duet that is for two females, preferably relating to love. Thanks!

The first two I thought of were "Take Me Or Leave Me" from Rent (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJlOQO6ZKbY) and "I Know Him So Well" from Chess (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDWWM6h51hc).

This one isn't about love, but "Bosom Buddies" from Mame (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8OMzsGlwnc) is a good choice if you want to make people laugh.

My favorites would be...

"In His Eyes" from Jekyll & Hyde

"It Comes As No Surprise" from Doctor Zhivago 

"You Love Who You Love" from Bonnie and Clyde


"There’s nothing quite like the power and the passion of Broadway music. "

"For Good" is the classic one, in my opinion. Also:

"I Will Never Leave You" from Side Show

"A Boy Like That/I Have a Love" from West Side Story

Dear Old Friend, from "Love Never Dies," is one I like. I can't remember whether it's actually a duet or a trio, but it can easily be sung as a duet.

Matchmaker, Matchmaker can probably be done as a duet.

I think "If/Then" has one or two.

That Horrible Woman from A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder can be sung as a duet

BroadwayConcierge said: ""I Will Never Leave You" from Side Show"

Jumping off of this and adding "Who Will Love Me As I Am?" (also from Side Show) to the list. I'm ashamed of myself for not thinking of it sooner.
