hey guys! I'm having some trouble locating good female duets. if you could just list your favorites, that would be very much appreciated. Thanks!
The most obviouse is 'Class' from Chicago or 'I know him so well' from Chess can be nice
Consider some from everyone's favorite, Wicked :)
also, "Take me or Leave me" from Rent
"Every Day a Little Death", is essentially a duet from A Little Night Music
"If Mamma was Married" From Gypsy
"A Boy Like That" From West Side Story......a GREAT duet!
Perhaps, songs from Into the Woods, like "A Very Nice Prince"
"What you Don't know about Women" from City of Angels is a great duet.
"I Will Never Leave You" and "Who Will Love Me As I Am?" from Side Show.
"Marry the Man Today" from Guys and Dolls! Very funny.
"Ohio" from Wonderful Town
"My Best Friend" from MJLC's WILD PARTY
"The Grass Is Always Greener" from WOMAN OF THE YEAR (it's on AND THE WORLD GOES ROUND, TOO)

"Every Day a Little Death" from A Little Night Music has two female parts, although I guess one is sort of more backup than the other.
There have been MANY of these threads. Do a search and you will find even more suggestions.
