I found this list of songs for musical theater females that I jotted down when I was judging at the MDDC NATS auditions. It’s short because a lot of people sang the same things. But these stuck out. All are available on Musicnotes.com unless notated otherwise.
- Nothing short of wonderful – Dogfight – Benj Pasek & Justin Paul
- Cute boys with short haircuts – Vanities – David Kirschenbaum
- I could be Jewish for you – cabaret song – Nikko Bensen
- Dance with you – The Prom – Matthew Sklar +Sheet Music Direct
- Don’t say another word – Next Thing You Know – Joshua Salzman & Ryan Cunningham
- Anyway – Tales from the Bad Years – Kait Kerrigan and Brian Lowdermilk (sung here by the lyricist, Kait Kerrigan)
Take a listen to them. If there’s anything you want to learn (maybe in the summer, since the school year is winding down), let me know.
Maybe we can have a Zoom get together later this week to talk about repertoire you want to learn…. keep an eye on the studio FB page or on Insta for any upcoming Zoom chats!
