Final Audition
SONGS:
The Colour Purple - I'm here (by Brenda Russell)
Jesus Christ Superstar - I don't know how to love him (by Andrew Lloyd Webber)
Dream Girls - Listen (by Henry Krieger)
MONOLOGUES:
Richard Fisher's Funeral (by Kellie Powell)
Goodbye World (Paula Vogel)
I have chosen my song 'Listen' from the musical Dream Girls as the song expresses the willingness of wanting to achieve a goal, the urge of escaping and being prepared to face the world and having their voice being heard. Which I believe will be suitable for the audition which I could compare to the musical 'Rock of Ages' as the musical itself has a ambitious young lady called Sherrie Christian who has Drew falling in love with and hoping to become big in the acting industry. In which I can use the contrast of character Deena as she gets helped by Curtis a record executive to make her a house hold name and eventually falls madly in love with her.
The song itself invites you through a emotional journey with her, 'Listen' being the first word in the song does show you sympathy and remorse towards the character, that is why I like the song personally. The hooks and the bridges helps to elevate the mood and spirit of the song, making you as the audience feeling as if there is a way at the other side; you could chase your dreams and make it only if you preserver
