Good trio for 3 high school gals???

At the ballet from A Chorus Line?

Three Little Maids form Gilbert & Sullivan's "The Mikado"
It's about three girls singing about there life at school.

I'd go for "At The Ballet" from A Chorus Line, that's always been one of my favorite trios. Though I think you could tweak the trio from Aida "A Step Too Far" to make it for 3 girls.

Yeah, A Step Too Far would be good, with a little manipulating of Radames' notes. Nothing too major.

You Could Drive a Person Crazy.
You Gotta Have a Gimmick.
Dreamgirls.

You Could Drive a Person Crazy is a great song (I just closed a run of the show as Joanne) but I would be nervous about the lyrics for any type of audition in terms of age apropriate-ness.

I think I'd go with Step Too Far..It's a great piece and switching it around wouldn't be difficult.

Well, at camp, we turned Popular into a trio song with girls aged about 14-16 or something like that....here was our blocking and such:

Well, here's how they did it. Just so you know, one role is large, the other is smaller, and the other has even less than the rest. There was also an Elphaba. It starts with Galinda talking to Elphaba about being Popular(Galinda is standing, Elphaba is sitting), and Galinda starts singing the song. Elphaba is trying to stand up and get away, but Galinda continuosly pushes her back down. Galinda sings until "....how to fix your hair, everything that really counts to be...." while Elphaba is almost offstage. One of Galinda's friends sudenly jumps out and starts singing "popular! I'll help you be popular...." until "'cause you've got an awefully long way to go!" while pushing Elphaba back to centre stage. At "long way to go" Galinda and her friend- we'll call this friend friend #1- are holding Elphie's hands and swinging them back and forth. Friend #2 suddenly jumps out from behind, grabs Elphaba very quickly, and starts singing "Don't be affended..*until*..personality dialisis!" Then Galinda does the next part while sitting Elphie down in her seat. Galinda sings until the "Lalas" where all three girls sing. After this, Galinda and friend #1 start making Elphaba up while friend #2 sings the next verse until the words "to think of"....then she switches place with friend #1. All three girls say "please!" and "like me!" You can do a small bit of a skit here to show Elphaba leaving. All three girls go centre stage and sing "and though you protest your dis-interest"....then Galinda sings "I know clandestinedly" until "popularity"! All three girls do the La's until the end and then pose and run off stage. If you ever perform this in this way, I suggest you make Galinda a valley girl, make friend #1 act really into herself, and make friend #2 very comedic and over the top. In the final La's, you can have friend #2 try to find a spot between the two other girls until she gives up and simply stands beside them. This is how we did the scene at the camp I went to....if you have any other questions, feel free to ask them as the way I have written may not make much sense.

The audience seemed to love it, even though it is a bit overdone. Depending on where you are, that might not matter.

"Louder than Words" from Tick Tick BOOM! I'm sure you could somehow raise the notes for the two guys' parts.

You Gotta Get a Gimmick from Gypsy would be really fun.

My friends were talking about arranging "Hear My Song" from SFANW for three girls. I don't know how mature your singers are, but this could be an option.
