Audition songs for the four kids in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (Augustus, Violet, Veruca, Mike)? The new one.
Wow BIG ask! Thankfully this is my favorite musical so I’m very familiar (I’m actually auditioning to play Mike Teavee soon with one of these songs!)
Here are some audition songs for the four evil children in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory!:
Augustus Gloop Audition Songs:
Hygge - Frozen (Obvious choice, but that’s cause it’s a great choice)
Haben Sie gehört dad Deutsche band? - The Producers
Magic Foot - The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
Super Sea Star Savior - The Spongebob Musical (Patrick’s verse, starting with “This is weird you guys but I like having all you around”)
Violet Beauregarde Audition Songs:
I Got This - Freaky Friday (SAVANNAH’S VERSE!!!!, It’s PERFECT for Violet, if you want to take a listen it starts at 3:42 on the cast recording!)
Cooties - Hairspray (Play it like you’re talking about Veruca, and it fits so easily. You could even use the pop version of the song that was on the Hairspray film soundtrack)
The World According to Chris - Carrie
Never Shut Up Again - Heathers
What the World Needs - Ride The Cyclone
Veruca Salt Audition Songs:
Whatever Lola Wants - Damn Yankees (Pretty much the perfect song for this role, complete with the Russian accent in the OBC)
Here I Am - Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
Killer Instinct - Bring It On (Could potentially work for Violet as well! Good choice if you’re going for either role)
Screw Loose - Crybaby (Hear me out, it’s a whiny number and if you played it super bratty it would work really well for Veruca)
Mike Teavee Audition Songs:
Stick It To The Man - School Of Rock (Hits the EXACT same high note that Mike hits in the show)
Only a Matter of Time - Back to the Future (I’m singing this for my Mike audition! It’s a recent show, so you wouldn’t ordinarily sing it for an audition so soon but it hasn’t really made any impact in terms of iconic songs, so I’d say it’s a great choice if you can nail it!)
I Can’t Stand Still - Footloose
