Okay. So my school is doing Oliver, and I really don't have much of a clue as to who to audition for or what song to sing.

I'm a senior, and have done theatre at my school since my Freshman year. My range is D2-G4, and I have sung all three male voice parts in choir. I'm 6' and have light brown hair.

The thing with this show is, the three strongest guys in our school are at least 6' tall, so no one knows who's going to play Oliver, or even if any of us could pull off being Dodger. Help please!!!

Past shows include...

Little Shop of Horrors - Seymour
Cinderella - Prince
Godspell - We Beseech Thee
Gianni Schicchi - Gherardo
Children of Eden - Storyteller
Seussical - Thing 1

Mr Sowerberry or Mr Bumble i think you could do, although they're kind of the opposite to eachother....

Go for either Fagin or Bill! In my opinion, Fagin steals the show, but Bill's the real villain, so either one is awesome, and needs to be taller! Go for it!

actually, i'd agree with the asbove post - as you've had big roles in the past, go for Fagin or Bill (i think you'd be better at Fagin - the roles you've done before that i know of are comic)

Fagin is the lead of Oliver. I don't care what any one else says. i don't care what happens to Oliver once he meets Dodger. I don't care about Dodger after Concider Yourself. I care about Fagin because he makes the show go on and he is more intertaining.
