Ladies and gentlemen, stop that girl, that girl running up the aisle. Stop her! That’s the girl whose voice you heard and loved tonight. She’s the real star of the picture. Kathy Selden!

I'm directing a Large group piece at my school and I'm having trouble picking a song I want something fast yet heavy and the least solos the better, any suggestions

Probably too late, but my choir did "The Ballad of Sweeney Todd." That seems to fit the description. Of course, I was in high school. If for a bit younger grade, maybe "You Can't Stop the Beat." And if even younger than that, maybe a song from a Disney musical? Haha. It gets kinda hard at that point.

What would be a good song to audition with for Morales in A Chorus Line? :)

These are a few songs I can think of that might fit:

“Climbing Uphill” from The Last 5 YearsThis song gives off a very A Chorus Line vibe, being about Kathy’s experience trying out for shows.

“It Won’t be Long” from In the HeightsSimilar to “Nothing” in format and feelings, being both fun and serious. Starting out serious, then gradually getting more serious.

“Maps” from Fun HomeHas that same reminiscent feeling that a lot of the songs in A Chorus Line have, being about the different characters and their past experiences.

“I’d Give My Life for You” from Miss SaigonMaybe? It’s a little too serious, but it does captures the desperation that the characters in A Chorus Line feel trying to get a role in the chorus, and both this song and “What I Did for Love” have a similar theme of being about being willing to do what you have to for love. Having said this, the song is pretty serious, so it’s a bit of a stretch. Haha.

I am sorry if this answer is too late! I did not know I had any questions. T_T I hope this helps, or that the audition went well. Maybe this will help someone else trying out for the role?

Hi! Do you think you could upload the rest of the 21 Chump Street soundtrack?

I can't! T_T Ugh. I wish I had uploaded all the songs before Tumblr updated audio posting. So many people are asking for it. I'm sorry friends. :(

[manymusicals]

Will you be posting 'The Money' in 21 Chump Street Musical?

Only posted it as a Spotify thing. We can't upload songs anymore, unfortunately. :/I'm sorry!
