Hey all!

I have an audition for les mis tomorrow and i still dont know what song to sing. it says to sing a song like in that style and the style of the character that you want to play and i am thinking about auditioning for madame thendier.

At the moment my best choice is big spender which i know isnt really in the right style but i am currently singing that in another show.

Please Help Me!!!!

Hi Brooke,

If you are going for Mdm Thenadier, then I think Big Spender will work OK for you - if you can play it 'big and funny' for the audition. I believe it'll give the panel a good indication of your comedic abilities (and vocal power, which for Thenadier is important).

As a director, personally I wouldn't have any trouble with this song for the audition. Wouldn't work too well for Cosette, though... ;o)

Good luck today! :o)

Regards,
Jason Seperic
