I need a comical duet for tenor/baritone (preferably tenor) and soprano.
Something that's funny out of the conntext of a show, and can be effectively staged with no props etc.
Thanks!

Posted: 2/13/05 at 1:15pmMaybe Two of a Kind - from the Wild Party?
#14re: HELP! I need a comic M/F duet!!
Posted: 2/13/05 at 1:34pmI'm pretty sure there is a way to get Tick Tick Boom sheet music, because my friends did "Therapy" at a cabaret concert once. I think it's pretty hard to find though.

I know it's WAAAAAAAY overdone, but you can do "Anything you can do, I can do better" from Annie Get Your Gun.
Or "Tango: Maureen"
Or also "Therapy" from TTB, as has been stated before.

Posted: 2/13/05 at 2:07pmHow about Wunderbar from Kiss Me Kate?
"This is what I trained to do, and this is what I love about theater. What I love about being an actress is being able to really look into myself and understand another human being. And out my own self, to shape and form and fashion a real human being--and to present that in such a way that people see something of themselves or their own understanding in that human being."

Posted: 2/13/05 at 10:01pm"The Tennis Song" from City of Angels. i think it's called that. it's a good number and actually funny out of context with the show.
