Good audition songs from musicals for men?

Question

I am auditions for 'You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown' next week. The audition flyer said make sure to choose a song that 'shows character.' I'm pretty sure that my best bet would be to go with something from a musical. I don't know any songs sung by men, though. What are some? I'm a bass, but I'm sure I could work with anything.

Answer 1

"mr. cellophane" from chicago *fun*

"close every door" joseph and the amazing technicolor dreamcoat



"luck be a lady" from guys and dolls



i'll think of a few more and get back to ya

Answer 2

Reviewing the Situation from Oliver is a GREAT male character song - act out the words and it's so funny!



Otherwise Marion the Librarian or Trouble are good ones from the Music Man

Answer 3

Any song from Grease is always a good choice. Or even a song from the Musical Music Man, or even Oklahoma. Tjose are three extremely popular musicals that everyone knows. Good Luck.

Answer 4

coming to America Neil diamond is the best

Answer 5

"Ol' Man River" from "Show Boat"

Great, great song...plus it "must" be done by a bass.

Answer 6

"If ever I would leave you" is a great song. I think it's from Camelot.
