I'm auditioning for Into the Woods, help with song?

Question

I'm a mezzo soprano with a medium high belt and good head voice. I need a good audition song. I'm thinking of using In His Eyes from Jekyll and Hyde or Once Upon a Dream from Jekyll and Hyde as well. But I'm really not sure. Help? Thanks!

Answer 1

Someone Like You from Jekyll and Hyde is a great audition song

If you're auditioning for a show like Into the Woods, however you may want to pick something much more upbeat, maybe even with a character voice.  Look at other Sondheim shows.  Do whatever feels most comfortable.

Answer 2

Jeckyll and Hyde sucks.

Mezzo Soprano?

How about something from A Chorus Line? Like sections from "At the Ballet"?

Answer 3

Unless you can really nail In His Eyes I would choose Once Upon a Dream.  I don't know anything much about music but In His Eyes seems way more complicated so it would show your skills better but you could also end up s******g it up unless you can really nail that sucker.
