I feel like there's a story behind the 'If you're auditioning for Sondheim, you have to sing Sondheim' line

@JennaCavaliere 7 лет назад

It is because sondheim is very unique, and complicated. If you are auditioning for a show they need to see you can follow the correct notes for the show :)

@KatesAdventures 8 лет назад

You've just reminded me, omg! Random story time! I didn't see the Little Mermaid in full until I was 15 and I could recognise the chorus of "Part of Your World" but I'd basically never heard the song, so for a long time I actually thought "Somewhere That's Green" and "Part of Your World" were the same song. It made sense to me cause, ya know, mermaids don't see much grass. That was the logic behind that strange assumption.

I am going to be in the Little mermaid jr. and I was going to sing part of your world, and I have an alto to soprano range but I want to sing in a mezzo voice but I just can't belt the end. I really want to be Ariel, but it could be too high for me to belt. (Keep in mind I'm 12 and this is for the kids camp at my community theater.)

@cringemeister04 5 лет назад

If this comment wasn’t from a year ago I would think you did this in El Paso

If it’s for a kids camp don’t belt, just use a strong head voice. You probably won’t have much competition .

What a great video! This is very helpful advice. I'm always debating what songs to sing for auditions, and you've given me a few ways to look around that I haven't tried before. Love the Sondheim exception. So very true.

@Kath_Steele 8 лет назад

Oh, yay!! So glad to hear it 💗 thanks

@hilariparsons9937 7 лет назад

how do you feel about girls trying out with guys songs? I'm an alto and I do have some songs in mind (There's a Fine Fine Line, Maybe This Time, Nothing, etc.) but I like the way my voice sounds with Stars from Les Miserables. I'm trying out for Beauty and The Beast and Belle is a mezzo part so I'm a bit iffy, but I also am grateful for any part I get. Thoughts?

@Kath_Steele 7 лет назад

Hilari Parsons Hey Hilari! 💕 Depends on the audition situation, but in almost every case I'd recommend against singing a male song. Additionally, the personality/musicality of the song doesn't fit Belle. But that's just my opinion! 😊

@hilariparsons9937 7 лет назад

Katherine Steele thank you so much! I'll keep searching for songs 😊

@Kath_Steele 7 лет назад

Hilari Parsons try using some of the tips I mentioned in the video--it'll definitely help!! 😊💕💖

@hilariparsons9937 7 лет назад

Katherine Steele I definitely will, I was just focusing on trying to find something that fit my voice part, but now I can make it even better, thanks so much! 💞

@Tillysnow1 7 лет назад

I'm gonna share my recent audition story in hoping it helps someone else! So I was auditioning for Fiddler On The Roof and I spent FOREVER trying to find 2 songs for the audition. They needed to be contrasting, show off my range and still suit the character (I was going for Hodel). So first I picked Home from Beauty and the Beast, because the slow sad kind of mourning is very similar to Far From The Home I Love, which is the song Hodel sings, and I had recently sung it at a recital so I was very familiar with it. I spent more time trying to find a second song, because it needed to be more uptempo and show more of my upper range (which Home didn't). I looked up shows that the composers of Fiddler had also done together, and found She Loves Me, which I had never heard of, and picked Vanilla Ice Cream because it seemed fun. FUN FACT! When I showed up to the audition, a girl was singing Home to the creative team in the other room, and I automatically knew there was no way I could sing Home and still get the part I wanted. Sooooo I changed it last minute and performed God Help The Outcasts and Vanilla Ice Cream... GOOD NEWS! I still got the role of Hodel :D

This is my first year in musical theater and my school is putting on a production of Once Upon a Mattress. I'm auditioning for Princess Winifred, even though I know I won't get it because it's my first year. Since it was written in 1959 and has a jazzy feel to it, so I was thinking of doing Feeling Good by Nina Simone (I have a low voice for a female), but do you have any suggestions? My knowledge on musicals and their songs is very limited.

@jeanchristianbarry7306 7 лет назад

Dalia Moreno I'm just a sophomore in Musical Theatre in college, but I would recommend something both fun, belty, and princess-y. Maybe 'Morning Person' from Shrek the Musical.

It is a bit high for my voice (as most songs are), but I'll see if my vocal coach can transpose it. Thank you so much for the advice. I was also thinking b of doing Here I Am from Dirty Rotten Scoundrels...?

@isabelladuck7760 7 лет назад

Hey people of the comments is it okay to sing a song 1.) originally meant for the opposite gender and 2.) from the show you're auditioning for. I'm auditioning for Annie and I really want to sing You're Never Fully Dressed Without A Smile but I'm not sure if it's okay to. They just said any song but I don't want to seem lazy by choosing a song from the show, you know?

@Kath_Steele 7 лет назад

+Isabella Foriska Hey Isabella! 1) in general, your audition song should match your casting type (which you can learn more about here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wt0toIsjz2g.html) 2) as long as the auditors didn't say not to, you can totally sing from the show!

Because it’s at school. And I can’t curse. ANYWAYS I’m not sure if it’s the best. I’m a girl, and it’s sung by Jack Kelley (a boy) BUT I’m very confident while singing it and it’s right in my vocal range. I love singing it. What should I do?

@jessskwara7255 8 лет назад

one more question. They said to prepare 16-32 bars so do I still bring piano sheet music for the entire song?

@Kath_Steele 8 лет назад

Yes (and have it memorized/performance ready). They probably won't ask to hear the full song, but it's better to be over prepared than under. Bring two copies of the sheet music--one with only the necessary pages/cuts for your 16/32 bar cut and then a clean, full version as well :)

Hey Kat, I know this video is kinda old now but I’m auditioning for legally blonde JR and really want Paulette (or Elle but I personally think I am more suited to Paulette) and I need to pick an audition song that isn’t from the show. It says to prepare a ballad. It doesn’t specifically say 32 bars but I’ve auditioned for this theatre company before and usually the audition song maximum is 2 mins. I’m thinking along the lines of kindergarten boyfriend or a section of I won’t say I’m in love because it gives me similar vibes to Ireland.

@hannahthebanana2086 6 лет назад

This year, my elementary school preformed "The Little Mermaid Jr." and I auditioned for Ursula but I sang "Part Of Your World" because it was the only song I could choose that was remotely close to "Poor Unfortunate Souls" and the cruel irony was I got Jetsam, Ursula's female henchman while my friend, who I was better than no lie, got Ursula. I say I was better since she didn't want to sing the head voice lines and offstage she had to use a microphone and sing what we all called the "Ahhs" that were extremely high and I almost did them for her. It was a let-down but I was in more scenes. I know this isn't what musical theater is about, but it was my first speaking line and I nailed it.

@Kate-ni6bp 5 лет назад

My middle school has an extra after school choir that you audition to get into. Do you think That Would Be Enough from Hamilton would be a good song? I auditioned last year and did hear some Hamilton, but not this song in particular. Love your videos!

Thanks, Gabriella! Not really--that's actually why I started making videos. Broadway.com is one of my fave theatrey channels, though. So that's always fun to watch!

I study at Actor Therapy with Ryan Scott Oliver and Lindsay Mendez and they've helping find great new songs for me.

I audition for Millie from Thoroughly Modern Millie and I sung History of Wrong Guys from Kinky Boots and the panel loved it. Didn't get cast because I was blonde :(

Auditioning for School of Rock with a pretty professional community theater group. I looked an Andrew Lloyd Webber stuff but nothing's really working out. I have a Mezzo voice leaning more to soprano and I really want to be Rosalie. Any tips?

How do I choose an audition song for a new musical written by a new composer? I have very limited info on the characters/composers, so I’m not totally sure how to proceed. I know it’s a strong female with a legit-style score- any ideas? (I need to find an up-tempo and a ballad). Love you Kat!

Hey! I just started watching your videos and I enjoy them a lot! I feel a lot of theatre accounts on youtube are just talking about basic broadway gossip which can be entertaining but isn't useful information but you really give aspiring artists advice from the eyes of someone who is experiencing things herself which I love! I was just curious what college you go to? (you might've mentioned it in a past video I just haven't seen all of your videos yet lol) Thank you! Definitely subsribing

Hey Tate!!! Thank you so much, that really means a lot. And welcome to the Theatre Thursday Fam!!! 💕💕 For a few reasons, mainly so I don't seem biased, I don't disclose exactly where I live/study. But I can tell you that I had to make some decisions at some point involving Ithaca, Otterbein, Hartt, Montclair, Rider, Texas State, Oklahoma State, Shenandoah Conservatory, Millikin, and Utah 😊

Does anyone have any tips for an audition for Spamalot? I want to play the lady of the lake, but I don’t know what song to sing!

@giannabrockriede1079 7 лет назад

I'm auditioning for BE MORE CHILL, which is a super underated show and not widely known! For those who DO know it- I'm auditioning for Christine Canigula and I am REALLY struggling with a song!! I seriously cannot find anything in the same key/same genre/etc. and the auditions are next week!! Any suggestions?! Please? Anything is helpful! My range is F3-D5 if that's helpful, I'm considered an alto 1 and/or soprano 2 according to my musical director!
