Looking for entire cast numbers

Posted: 10/9/05 at 11:22pm

Hey, everyone, I'm looking for a broadway number that's upbeat & modern that would work if taken out of the context of the show. We already did Seasons of Love last year...does anyone have any other suggestions as to their favorite entire cast numbers or numbers that they think would work? thanks so much!!!!

I think either of the finales from Les Mis could work out of context. Definetly not as powerful, but they could work.

You Can't Stop the Beat - Hairspray
Circle of Life - Lion King
We Dance - Once on this Island

And you think of all of the things you've seen, and you wish that you could live in between ,and you're back again only different than before... After the Sky. -Into the Woods (Jack)

i totally second we dance. its fun and clean and will leave the audience dancing in their seats.

gods love nubia
will i or finale B from RENT (that is if you can handle the harmonizing b/c both are so beautiful)
la vie boheme, but its kinda inappropriate.

if i think up any more ill let you know.

EDIT: voulez vous or gimmie gimmie gimmie from mamma mia are really fun too.

Upbeat and modern? If you're not afraid to add some choreography...the first two that come to mind for me are "You Can't Stop the Beat" from Hairspray and "Burning Love" from All Shook Up. I don't think it's all that modern, but it's so much fun to perform: "Too Darn Hot" from Kiss Me, Kate. Even though it's completely pointless, "Shipoopi" from The Music Man is fun. "Lullaby of Broadway" from 42nd Street could work out of context, I think. Maybe even "Time Warp" from Rocky Horror?

Some of those aren't really modern, though. I just think they're fun to perform.

'The Country's in the Very Best of Hands' from Li'l Abner is muy fun, and still relevant. One of the best shows i ever did.

I totally skimmed the post and missed the "upbeat & modern" part, so just ignore my post. LOL

Thanks everyone, ya'll are great!! I've never heard of a few of the songs you've suggested, which is cool. I can't remember what "we dance" is like, I'll have to go buy the cd. If you think of any more songs I'd appreciate it, we have about 50 singers but hate stand still "choir like" singing so choreography type numbers is no problem :O) Thanks again!

How about 'Pinball Wizard' from 'Tommy'?

...or I'd second 'Dance of the Robe' or 'The Gods Love Nubia' from 'Aida' if you had the voices.

You Can't Stop the Beat would be perfect.
