Auditioing For Oklahoma! HELP.!

I've decided to audition for a production of Oklahoma! and am not quite sure what to sing or who to audition for. I'm thinking about Ado Annie, but could I get some more opinions? Also, that may be too ambitious of a role for a new comer in this particular theatre.
I'm 14 years old, but look at least 16, and am capable of doing accents. I'm normally a soprano, but am perfectly comfortable in belting and hitting low notes. I can belt to about a (high) C.
I've only seen the show once, so I'm not exaclty sure of ranges, or characters. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
BTW, I'm a female. Smile

Is it a youth production or an adult production?

Ado Annie belts to an Eb, so keep that in mind.

Laurey is a soprano, Aunt Eller is more of a mezzo or alto, not sure. And those are the 3 main singing roles.

Then there is Gertie, who tries to steal Curly from Laurey and has a distinctive laugh, she doesn't have solo singing parts.

This is a great show to be in the ensemble, because there is so much to do. There are a lot of group songs and dances, with solo lines in many songs. And a bunch of lines for different characters.

One idea for a song - my daughter played Ado Annie last year and used Always True to You in My Fashion from Kiss Me Kate.

Good luck.
