Sweeney Todd Audition help

Anybody have any suggestions for what to sing for an audition for Pirelli in Sweeney Todd? He sings such a specific song with a few high C's and I am at a loss. Any help will be appreciated very much. Thanks.

Something from a comic opera that really shows your ability to sing high C's, and be funny. I don't know if anything from the Gilbert and Sullivan repertoire even goes near that high, but it would be a good place to look, I'd imagine.

I'd recommend something from Italian opera, actually. OR...maybe one of Alfredo's arias from "Die Fledermaus" (if you sing it in English).
