I'm going to be auditioning for a musical for a community theatre production Monday or Tuesday (provided my voice is still alive... it's hanging by a thread [cold]). It's Into the Woods by Stephen Sondheim, and I'm trying to decide which song to sing. This first is by Sondheim (I had some advice that it would be a good idea, but I don't know and "feel" the song, so I'm not sure). The second is from Funny Girl (and Glee!) and the third is from Wicked. I know that both of those shows are overdone, though... If you could let me know your thoughts, that'd be great!

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

First, they're not videos - they are mp3 files. Secondly, wow - why so rude?

Laura. Don't Ever. Ever. Sing Wicked or Funny Girl for an audition. Ever. Unless you are at a callback for Wicked or Funny Girl and you have been given the song to sing for them. Now singing a song from the same composer for a show you are auditioning for is always a good idea. Go with Take me to the World. Also, I would't ask for audition advice on the broadway board in the future. Go with the student board.
