Hey, I'm thinking about auditioning for Naked Boys Singing in Provincetown next week. I've never seen the show but it sounds like a lot of fun and my friends say I'd be perfect for it. Not knowing the style of the show do you guys have any suggestions for songs to sing? They want funny.

Also, Next to Normal=AMAZING

Great Big Stuff from Dirty Rotten Scoundrels?

Rent the DVD from Netflix and that should give you an idea.

Why do your friends think you would be perfect for
NAKED BOYS SINGING?

Singing is not the important thing in this show.

^^I'd have to agree with CurtainPullDowner. The right look is most important, then followed by having some singing talent.

I'd also recommend renting the DVD to give you an idea of the show.

And hehe, I'm such a teenage boy, because when madbrain suggested "Great Big Stuff" as an audition song, I giggled because yes, my brain went there.

I think you could sing anything that shows your personality. Be yourself. Because once you are nekkid,your personality is all you can sell with your schlong, er song.

As I said in another thread, this thread is completely useless without pictures.

I have no song suggestions, but I will say that I know the producers of this personally and they are wonderful people to work with.

For my audition, I believe I sang Dressing Them Up from Kiss of the Spider Woman.

I did the show here in NYC. I don't recall what I prepared for the audition but they didn't even let me sing it. They wanted to hear something wordy. This was to ensure diction and volume - being that you are not mic-ed (at least in the NY production).
Doesn't answer your question, I know.
And you have no idea what look they are going for? When I was in the show, they were after all types. They wanted everyone to feel like their type was up on stage (ie Jock, Muscle Twink Bear and anything in between).

^ Knowing the dudes casting this, they would die (in a good way) if you sang that.

Not Broadway, but whatever.

"Medieval Bush" comes to mind.

Weeeelll..... You know it's Easter,
And my heart is open wide,
Wanna give you something so you know what's on my mind.
A gift real special, so take off the top
Take a look inside...
It's my d*ck in a box
