How would you pronounce this?

In Shakespeare%26#039;s A Midsummer Night%26#039;s Dream, Act 5, Scene 1, line 253, Starveling says %26quot;This lanthorn doth the horned moon present.%26quot; Would the %26quot;present%26quot; be pronounced like present, to be there, or like present, to show?





Thanks for your help! :)
How would you pronounce this?
accent on second syllable, it is the symbol of the moon.
How would you pronounce this?
pre%26#039; sent as to show.
Reply:Obviously he means %26quot;represents%26quot; so it would be pre sent as to exist.

I personally know that they just signed with G4 Television where their shows appear in 60 Million Homes Nationwide every Sat. and Sun. morning and and are also starting their first full length feature film next month.





Their Band %26quot;The Buzz%26quot; is down in L.A. right now and working with a Producer that Produced 50 Cent, Christina Aguilara, and they are scheduled to go on tour with Danity Kane.





If you have talent, they will get you in front of the right people, but with anything else you must refine your skill before you are ready to go big.





Good Luck!!!!
Reply:Well, there%26#039;s two main ways to get into fame.





One is to push for it at a very young age (4, 5 years old) and get your start, and two is to get lucky and work hard. It looks good on a resume for auditions to have several years of training such as college and community theater classes. Don%26#039;t go for the big roles at first, go for the very small roles such as background people or onewords.

Monologues for teens?

I need to bring in 5 teen appropriate monologues for tomorrow for my acting class. This means no cussing and no super adult language.





-It needs to be a minute or less, NO longer than a minute.


-It should be from a movie/book/play/tv show.


-Not so well known that while I am reciting my monologue my teacher can%26#039;t focus on me because she%26#039;s thinking of the actor doing it.


(eg.Lizzie McGuire, Hilary Duff)





Even if you could just give me a website that I can find something like what im looking for would be great!! Cause I%26#039;ve been looking and have been pretty unsuccesful.

Take a few classes at your local community College.





If you are on the west coast create a profile on either http://www.sfcasting.com or http://www.lacasting.com





If you are under 18, create a profile on http://www.gonnabe.com by getting a Screen-Test.





Constantly approach auditions while being yourself, friendly, and charismatic.





Good Luck!

The first thought that came to my mind is that you should check out massify.com. It%26#039;s a free online club where you can upload your resume, bio, photos, interests and link with other folks in the film industry who just may be seeking an actress like you for their independent production. I only know this because I joined it as well a few months ago and have received non-stop connection emails for productions in some facet or another. Good luck.
Reply:One way is to self- promote - consider creating a page on Castedas.com - you can create a profile with photos, videos, and info about all the performances you%26#039;ve been in. This is a brand new social site for actors - just launched.
Reply:First you going to have to go to acting schools for training. Not only one but a couple. Then you should get in local plays, school plays, student films. You could search for auditions on craigslist.com or subscribe to backstage.com The you should get headshots that look like you. Professional headshots are pretty expensive they cost $200-$1000 but on craigslist you could find less expensive headshot that range from $50 to $150. As you get more and more credits on your resume, you may want to go for an agent. An agent gets you auditions and they want people who they think would nail all the auditions they give. If you get a part in an audition. The money you make out of that work you pay 10% to your agent. ONLY 10%. If they ask for money upfront they are a SCAM. Once you get an agent you would start getting a lot of auditions which means more audition. As you make money out of roles you make you may want to get professional headshots. Then in the future you may want to join Union such a SAG, AFTRA , AEA.... HOPE I HELPED

Acting in canada and the u.s?

for example in order to be on the hit tv series degrassi, do i have to be a citizen of canada or do i just move down there and be on the show. Daniel clark (on degrassi) was born in chicago and did he just move to canada to be on the show? Another, shanae grimes (darcy) was born in canada and now shes coming to the u.s to be on that new show 90210 (wich is being filmed in beverly hills) does she have to become a citizen of the u.s to be on that show. on degrassi it says you have to be a candian citizen in order to be on the show. help please
Acting in canada and the u.s?
The big thing about Canadian vs. US productions is the incentives that Canada is currently giving filmmakers from the US. Usually if the lead is US born then they require about 70% (figures may be wrong) or the supporting cast to be Canadian to qualify. If the lead is Canadian it%26#039;s far less.





For the most part you do not NEED to be a citizen of the country in which filming is taking place. Unless it is something strictly enforced by either the production or casting company. If you are selected the production company should be able to secure a work visa or permit for you for the duration of your filming commitment.





Degrassi, being known more or less as a %26quot;Canadian%26quot; show may only want to use a large majority of actors from Canada, but there is nothing stating, obviously, that they can%26#039;t use actors fromother countries as well.

Do you think Robert Downey Jr. played a good Charlie Chaplin?

I think he is a good actor and played charlie chaplin perfectly. Cuz I%26#039;ve always been fascinated with chaplin and I was fascinated with downey playing him. Wow, he is very good.

Agreed. He is a very talented actor and his Chaplin was very good.

Reply:I can%26#039;t stand him,I use to watch 21 jumpstreet,%26amp; I didn%26#039;t like him then...sorry,I really have strong feeling against him.
Reply:I HATED %26#039;Less Than Zero%26#039;. Couldn%26#039;t see why they bothered to film it. However , the ONLY redeeming quality was Robert Downey, Jr. He%26#039;s always been good. The drug use was a setback, but he seems to be doing quite well now.





I don%26#039;t recall him in 21 Jump Street. Could that be Johnny Depp??
Reply:Downey made a great Chaplin. He knew the character, studied his films, his movements and got them down pat, then added his own talent into the mix. He had a little trouble capturing Chaplin%26#039;s voice, but he caught the essence of the public and private Chaplin very well. I can%26#039;t think of anyone else who could do better.
Reply:I think Downey did an excellent job in Chaplin. He had the


look and the manners of Chaplin down to a fine art. I think


he is a very good actor and I hope that he has truly beaten


his drug habit because if he has I think he will go down as one of the U.S.%26#039;s more respected actors rather than just %26#039;a movie star%26#039;.

oh, and i also need a monolouge, so if you guys wanna help with that, that would be great,


but im really just intrested in the song.


thank you sooo much!


%26lt;33
Audition??! help, please!?
Well, a song I know you could do is %26quot;A Whole New World%26quot; from the Alladin movie. Now, for a monologue, try searching for a Shakespeare one. I actually have no idea if there is one or not, but I%26#039;m sure William came up with something. If not, just look up some monologues for girls on google or yahoo. I am 100% positive you will find one. Oh, and good luck! :)
Audition??! help, please!?
How about you sing A whole New World? If that isn%26#039;t allowed then:





1. Home from Beauty and the Beast


2. Much More from the Fantasticks


3. Anything from legally blonde


4. Part of your world from the Little mermaid......





here is a monologue:


( this is for a guy....just take out all the parts that are for guys and replace it or fully take it out and say it how you think it would read if it were for a girl)....this is also dramatic...don%26#039;t do it in a comedic way...actually don%26#039;t do any monologue in a comedic way for Aladdin.





Danny: Hi Mom, how%26#039;s work? Do you think we%26#039;re going to stick around this time? I sure hope so, I feel like I%26#039;m starting like this school..Hey I made you some supper...would you like something to drink with it? (Beat) Great! (Timidly) Hey Mom? You know, since we%26#039;ve been moving around, I hadn%26#039;t really had a chance to make any friends, and I was wondering if I could borrow twenty dollars this Saturday, to take out this girl I met a couple of days ago at school. I haven%26#039;t really asked her out yet, but she seems pretty nice. She actually took the time to get to know me. I figured maybe you could spare a little, since we don%26#039;t go out all the time. (Beat) What! Why not! Well how about ten?....Not even ten dollars, it%26#039;s NOT like I ask you for money every day!....I don%26#039;t get it, have I done something wrong? Have I disappointed you in some way. I mean, it%26#039;s not like I sit around on my butt all day watching television or ditch my chores...I go to school every day, maintain a 3.2 grade point average, while moving all over the darn state, and after school, I go to work washing dishes five nights a week at that greasy restaurant....I never complain and I never get paid!....And you know why?....Tell me mom, why don%26#039;t I have any money?! Because I give it all to you, I don%26#039;t see a red cent...and to tell you the truth, I don%26#039;t think I%26#039;ve ever remember cashing one of my own checks...they go straight from my hand to yours, I never get a penny!...I%26#039;m sick of begging for my money, I%26#039;m sick of having to help you make ends meet!....It%26#039;s over, you hear me! Just give me two more years, when I graduate I%26#039;m out of here!....GONE FOR GOOD!...NOT COMING BACK!...DO YOU GET IT! I want to cash my own checks!....When I%26#039;m hungry, I want to buy myself a hamburger, and if I see a girl I like, I want to be able to take her out....I think I deserve that, I think I deserve to enjoy life like everyone else! I hate you and I%26#039;m tire of helping you live out your pathetic life! (Beat) What!...Well say SOMETHING (Pause) Mom....Mom....Mom I%26#039;m sorry...Did you hear what I just said? I%26#039;m sorry...Please, just don%26#039;t cry I can%26#039;t take it. Mom you know I would never really leave you by yourself....I got a little angry...I%26#039;m sorry. Hey, why don%26#039;t we go to the store and rent a movie instead, and I%26#039;ll pop up some popcorn...Wouldn%26#039;t that be fun? We could rent one of those comedies that you like...I love you Mom...I%26#039;m sorry.

-not that girl (from wicked)- this is simple but pretty

Reply:If it%26#039;s the version with the Disney songs, then sing a song from something else Disney - Beauty and the Beast, the Lion King, Mary Poppins, Pocahontas, just don%26#039;t use High School Musical. You could also sing something from Little Shop of Horrors as Alan Menken wrote the music for both that and Aladdin. If it%26#039;s not the Disney version, you want something in the same style as the music for the show - there are a bazillion versions of Aladdin out there so I can%26#039;t be any more specific, sorry!

Emerson in Boston. Their theater is magnificent. Locals go to see their performances regularly. Columbia College in Chicago is good too, but Emerson is a more respected degree in academia.
Reply:Tisch School of the arts (which is part of NYU) has one of the best musical theatre programs!! They put on amazing productions, and the school is in New York City, so you will have chances to get professional work, maybe even on Broadway! But overall, it%26#039;s a HUGE but really fantastic school, and you should really check it out!

Can you try out for the same agency twice?

just wondering.


say if i went to an open call for an agency [i know it%26#039;s not a scam it is on the SAG.com website] and they said no, then a few months later i wanted to audition again but this time i sent IN my resume %26amp; pic. could i do that or is it a one time thing for one agency?


thanks so much!


-AubreeMandy (:
Can you try out for the same agency twice?
First, you have two things mixed up; For an open call or what is affectionately known as a cattle call you have to bring a resume and a head shot. These %26quot;Open%26quot; casting calls are usually the worst way to try and get seen/audition. Sort of like the open female model calls of by days gone by (Do they still do these cattle calls for female models?).... anyway. You can go to these as many times as you want until you%26#039;re blue in the face!





However, when there is no audition for an agent, that has been announced, it%26#039;s dur-rigor you send in your resume and head shot! You should be doing this anyway, with or without a casting notice, to all reputable agents in your area. And I don%26#039;t include %26quot;Licensed%26quot; agents in this discussion either.
Can you try out for the same agency twice?
You can re-submit your headshot and resume to them; however, if they saw you once and said no, it%26#039;s doubtful that they would change their minds in a short time.





You should spend some time getting more experience and training to put on your resume to make yourself more attractive to them. But I would wait at least a year.

Does anybody know any website for casting calls, or auditions that need an actor? but not a scam website..?

You can have a try on Pavtube DVD Copy.


I found a good tool to backup the DVD disc. It is Pavtube DVD Copy. Get it here:


http://www.rocketdownload.com/program/pa...


I prefer to use it for its pragmatic functions. First DVD to DVD copy, each time I backup my DVD movie disc in case, the copied disc is the same with the original one. I am really happy to find it. in addition, If the disc space is not large enough, I also can choose main movie copy to save the space. This reduces the trouble for getting the suitable disc. Besides, the main point that I like is the user-friendly interface. Choose source and target, choose mode, and run. So easy, I enjoy the tool very much. Hope to share with DVD lovers.

Becoming a Film Director?

I am currently taking an honour%26#039;s degree in Canada for Professional Writing, and plan to double major in Film Studies. This doesn%26#039;t allow me to create films however, just study films (theory etc.) and do a bit of screen writing - it%26#039;s not a degree in Film Production. I was thinking of going to college afterwards to do the production part, since it will take only a year or two, instead of doing a full degree after which will take four. Or would it be beneficial to switch my degree completely to something in Film Production? ** If there is anyone with film industry experience / film school experience who could provide insight to this question, it would be appreciated. **

Reply:Taking a film production class or going to film school will only help in so many ways... it%26#039;s not like a degree in law and becoming a lawyer. No one is going to give you money and trust you as a director because you went to film school or got a film degree. You will learn some good things and you could meet some good contacts who can help you meet your goals now and in the future... but ultimately you can get these things out of film school. So I agree with the first answer, get a camera, write some shorts, and make little movies. They don%26#039;t need to be masterpieces, but you%26#039;ll learn how to make movies.





You need to build up a good directors reel. Then, keep writing. Writing does not cost money if you%26#039;re not paying for adaptation rights or anything like that. What you should aim for is a script that can be produced on a small budget that could have enough mainstream appeal to get distributed if it%26#039;s made well... then you go out with your script and director%26#039;s reel and raise money to make your film.





This is the independent film production route... there are many ways to achieve your goal and this is just one. You could also move out to Hollywood (or NY or Vancouver) and try and get PA jobs and keep working your way through the system until you have enough clout and reputation to get a job as a hired gun...

I want to send out headshots and resume's to agencies. Help!?

my only experience is community theater adn school plays. do i need more to be accepted? and to send them out, how many extra should i make and do i put them in manilla envelopes?
I want to send out headshots and resume%26#039;s to agencies. Help!?
For a resume, you should write down any role in theatre (that you are proud of) and any formal training you my have gotten. Be sure to make it like a standard resume. Headshots: You should ALWAYS send extras, but don%26#039; flood them with pictures of yourself because you don%26#039;t want them to get the wrong idea.
I want to send out headshots and resume%26#039;s to agencies. Help!?
No, you do not need more to be accepted. Send out a couple of your resumes, the more the better. Fold them up and send them in a regular envolope, but if you prefer a manilla envelope, go for it!

I want to become an actress... but how do I get discovered?

I%26#039;m 11 and I want to become an actress. I want to become an actress like those actresses that are around my age like Georgie Henley. I have black hair with really dark brown eyes and brwon skin.





A lot of my friends say I am really good at acting. I live in Canada, so how do I get discovered?





Thanks!
I want to become an actress... but how do I get discovered?
It is very rare for actresses to be discovered.


First, you have to live in an area that needs actresses...places where movies, television, and professional plays are produced.


Then, you need to get an agent.


Then, you have to work like heck.

Reply:i%26#039;m 14 with the same problem, but.....................


I hear that all u have to is put yourself out there.


People seldom get discovered by just sitting on their asses. Join a local theatre.....start working like HECK. Learn to sing and dance. Do public speaking and YOU go looking for what u want.
Reply:First you going to have to go to acting schools for training. Not only one but a couple. Then you should get in local plays, school plays, student films. You could search for auditions on craigslist.com or subscribe to backstage.com The you should get headshots that look like you. Professional headshots are pretty expensive they cost $200-$1000 but on craigslist you could find less expensive headshot that range from $50 to $150. As you get more and more credits on your resume, you may want to go for an agent. An agent gets you auditions and they want people who they think would nail all the auditions they give. If you get a part in an audition. The money you make out of that work you pay 10% to your agent. ONLY 10%. If they ask for money upfront they are a SCAM. Once you get an agent you would start getting a lot of auditions which means more audition. As you make money out of roles you make you may want to get professional headshots. Then in the future you may want to join Union such a SAG, AFTRA , AEA.... HOPE I HELPED

Celebritytalent.tv a scam?

So I was invited to one of celebrity talent %26quot;auditions%26quot; in Beverly Hills yesterday and it seemed pretty bogus to me. They said that they liked my look and threw in some more words to flatter me. Before I went into the interview, they were passing out these water bottles with their logo on it so that they would appear legitimate. They called me back today and said that my parents needed to pay $700+ so that I can get a makeup artist, acting classes, professional head shots, and so that they can find me an agent. I was pretty skeptical, so I turned down the offer. Anyone heard of this %26quot;talent agency%26quot;?





And why does it just so happen that it has the same address as absolute talent managment?
Celebritytalent.tv a scam?
I checked it out, it%26#039;s supposed to be a free service....I%26#039;d have your parents ask ALOT of ?????%26#039;s

Total scam.
Reply:They are a SCAM.. First of all they charging u Major money for headshots and acting classes they want. That%26#039;s A Big sign of a SCAM...

Is max detwieler a big part in the sound of music?

I was cast and i%26#039;m wondering how big of a part it is. of course %26quot;there are no small parts, merely bad actors%26quot;-- Shakespeare
Is max detwieler a big part in the sound of music?
Yes, it%26#039;s a pivotal supporting role, the %26quot;Uncle%26quot; who gets the Von Trapp Family involved in performing.
Is max detwieler a big part in the sound of music?
it%26#039;s not a lead, but he is an important part, he%26#039;s the unckle who comes to stay with the family, he has 2 songs with elsa(the captin%26#039;s love intrest that he eventually leaves for maria), that is if you are doing the broadway version. he also is like the only humorous character in the show, so have fun, i think it%26#039;s a good part!
Reply:It%26#039;s more like a minor role, like mother abbess.


But you have lots of cool and funny lines.

What kinds of envelope do i send my resume in?

do i use a manilla envelope so i don%26#039;t ruinteh picture or do i use a narmal envelope?
What kinds of envelope do i send my resume in?
If you%26#039;re sending a 10 x 8 picture you need to send it in one of those sturdy A4 sized envelopes with the letter and CV paperclipped to it.
What kinds of envelope do i send my resume in?
A #10 envelope is best, something that is a little thicker looks and feels more professional. Oh, and always write out the addresses by hand. It is more sincere.





I used something like this: http://www.actionenvelope.com/ae/control...





I picked the square flap because it is different but not over the top, and it always helps to stand out. If your resume is bright white, then your envelope should be as well.





You can find the #10 business envelopes at Target, Walmart, and various drug stores. They don%26#039;t usually have a wide variety, but if all else fails... just go with the plain white without the blue security print.
Reply:You want to use a 9 x 12 envelope because you are mailing your headshot/resume which will measure 8 x 10. Never ever fold it. It does not matter what color the envelope is. In every casting office I have worked in the interns or assistants that are opening the envelopes are opening them so quickly they never take notice of the color and then the envelope goes right in the trash.





Just make sure your handwriting is neat and whatever you do do not misspell the name of the casting director/agent, etc you are sending it to.

My class is doing a play for a midsummer night's dream. && i need costume ideas?

I%26#039;m in eighth grade but pretty short for my age. I am going to become a Fairy [act 2 scene 2] the one that talks with Robin Goodfellow. I don%26#039;t know what kind of dress/skirt/top i should wear. I%26#039;m not going to buy anything too expensive because this is the only time im going need this costume. thanks for all your ideas :]
My class is doing a play for a midsummer night%26#039;s dream. %26amp;%26amp; i need costume ideas?
something in a pastel colour, flowers would work but very plain is ideal. get something floaty and short.
My class is doing a play for a midsummer night%26#039;s dream. %26amp;%26amp; i need costume ideas?
my sister was a fairy in a midsummers night dream and she had a sort of flowy skirt, bare feet, and some sparkly eye makeup. For her top it was sort of a tank top with a flowy thing the same color has the skirt. Heres some pictures that may help you out.

Reply:I%26#039;d go with something floaty and a bit hippie~ish in natural colours and natural fabrics. Bare feet. Maybe flowers in your hair?





Break a leg and enjoy! :)
Reply:A flowing tunic over tights (and a leotard, if you wish). You can even just cut a hole in the center of a 7-foot or so piece of cool cloth, pop your head through and tie a piece of rope or ribbon around your waist to belt it off.





Depending on which one you are, you can coordinate the costume and/or make-up colour to it (Mustardseed would be ochre-ish, for example).





And flowers or some other greenery in your hair or wasitband might also be appropriate.
Reply:Something pastel, a little bit dressy, and maybe sew some flowers onto it.





Sometimes, i know from experiance, you can find REALLY REALLY nice dresses/skirts at Goodwill or local thrift stores around your area.





Good luck, and congrats on your part! its a really important one!

Do you think prince caspian is hot?

i looooooooooooove prince caspian and my friends do too but my mom says hes not
Do you think prince caspian is hot?
yes! he is so gorgeous!
Do you think prince caspian is hot?
I actually thought he was really good looking when I saw him on Stardust (he was the young guy that first went over the wall...but then for the rest of the movie, his character is played by an older actor, so he%26#039;s only in it for a brief time. ) So I looked him up and was so excited to see him as Prince Caspian. Loved it...I thought he did a good job.
Reply:Well, it depends on which Prince Caspian you%26#039;re speaking of.





Hollywood%26#039;s Prince Caspian: Sure, he%26#039;s gorgeous. He%26#039;s absolutely breathtaking.





C. S. Lewis%26#039;s Prince Caspian: He was twelve-something. What can I say? I don%26#039;t like to think about the hotness factor of twelve-year-olds.

How can i...?

I am IN LOVE with acting, singing, and dancing. It is my all time passion.





I am enrolled in theatre group that focuses on musicals, and i love it. I have looked for auditions, none for my age (13) around my area.





My question is: What are some ways i can get OUT there and get more known, get parts in more things, etc?
How can i...?
it is my passion as well! P.S., love your screen name and pic! So cute! Anyways, do anything you can to get acting exposure. This means school plays, after school drama club, drama classes offered after school, go to different theatres for auditions, get an agent, take acting classes summer camps, clinics, go to acting schools, take voice lessons, join a choir, take a dance class like tap, ballet, jazz, hip-hop or a combination musical theatre class. The only way you%26#039;re going to be able to get out there and be known is by experience and being really good at your craft. The more theatre type things you get involved in from the list above the more you%26#039;ll be able to put on your resume`, thus you%26#039;ll get better parts in whatever plays you strive to get into.. good luck!


You seem like a really great, cool person!

Somehow I made the speech team for next year?

Next year I will be a Freshman in high school, and me and a couple of friends tried out for the speech team (two friends made it, two didn%26#039;t). Anyway, i know i will completely suck compared to people already on it. Any tips on how not to completely embarrass myself?
Somehow I made the speech team for next year?
when time comes to choosing your speech, don%26#039;t slack off. Practice as much as you can. I was my school%26#039;s speech team captain this last year, and I loved it when I saw underclassmen practicing their speech%26#039;s.





Also, if your coach%26#039;s can%26#039;t take you for an extra practice, ask a captian. I loved when people came to me and asked me to watch them practice, and loved it even more when they took my suggestions and won!
Somehow I made the speech team for next year?
The biggest thing to do is not to act like you already know everything. If you ask for help when you need it, you%26#039;ll quickly become a very good speech-giver.





Public Speaking, in a nutshell:





- Be loud


- Appeal to emotions when appropriate


- Memorize the whole thing if you can so that you%26#039;re not always sticking your face in the paper. If you can look your audience in the eyes, you%26#039;ll get major bonus points.


- Proof read your speeches multiple times before you perform them.


- Have one or two other people with a good eye for mistakes proof read your speeches, as well.





Remember-- this is your first year, you%26#039;re not expected to be perfect. The people on the team already have at least a year behind them. Think of it like this-- if you try hard enough and you practice your craft decently and magnificently-- you%26#039;ll be just like them in a year or two.





As long as you don%26#039;t act as if you are the best of the best and you give enough respect to those who have been doing this before, you won%26#039;t embarrass yourself. Whenever THEY graduate, YOU%26#039;LL be the one who is awesome and fantastic.





You%26#039;ll be fine. : )





I hope that this has helped you!!

Audition.


And you better be damn good.
Reply:Beware of people who want to take your money. An agent only gets paid AFTER he gets you the job.





Audition for community theater or plays. A quick Google Search brought up a list of Community Theatres. It%26#039;s probably a good bet that the Texas A%26amp;M Performing Arts Center is a good starting point.





To get to Broadway you MUST be an excellent actress, singer, and dancer. It is extremely hard. Everyone I work with takes some kind of class, vocal, acting, dance, acting for the camera (which is different than acting for stage)





To get into plays you have to go to auditions.





Good luck.

Does anyone know if Cabaret is going to be back on broadway anytime soon?

Auditions are free.


Educate yourself about the acting business, and auditioning, if not, you will always fall for scams. Read the entertainment newspapers, they have valuable information.


Auditions are free, unless it is a scam.

Which is a better song to sing for carousel auditions?

I have already learned two songs that I am considering. They are If I loved You and Mr. Snow. I have no idea which one to sing because they both have the pros and cons.. its just a matter of weighing them out which is difficult. So.. here it goes.. If I loved you is simple but powerful and slow.. the way I like to sing and I think it suits my voice... however, it is not as much acting and I wanted to do a song that can really show my acting just in case I land the supporting role (which is a fun character) However, Mr. Snow has a lot of acting but I do not feel as powerful and it goes faster.. but not too fast. It has a lot of vary emotions but I feel it is not powerful. I do not know if when I%26#039;m auditioning the director would really turn his head where as I feel like If I loved you would do that. Except (one more thing sorry) many people I heard are doing If I loved you. AHH HELP PLEASE
Which is a better song to sing for carousel auditions?
One i know of is Dance: Ten; Looks: Three from a chorus line.





anything from a chorus line,cabaret,or some other dance related musical should be fine.An upbeat fun song. Not too much big voice, more fun, and LOTS of acting.
Which is a better song to sing for carousel auditions?
Have they asked for a song from the show specifically? If so, then go with the one that works best for you. If they haven%26#039;t clearly asked for a song from the show, go for another Rogers and Hammerstein song. Presuming that you are in fact a girl (both Billy and Julie sing %26quot;If I Loved You%26quot;), maybe look at one of Laurey%26#039;s songs from Oklahoma! - %26quot;Out of My Dreams%26quot; or %26quot;Many A New Day%26quot; would work well; possibly %26quot;Confidence%26quot; from the Sound of Music; one of Nellie%26#039;s songs from South Pacific (don%26#039;t know it well enough to recommend particular songs); even %26quot;I Enjoy Being A Girl%26quot; from Flower Drum Song. Stay with R%26amp;H though.
