The Music Man Audition Material - Songs Below You Will Find Material for Your Audition: Lyrics to the Song Choices and Pieces of Dialogue from the Script The Music Man Audition Material - Songs Below you will find material for your audition: lyrics to the song choices and pieces of dialogue from the script. To prepare for your audition, study the material below. Choose a song you are comfortable with and familiarize yourself with the dialogue. Yes, you may use the script, but do not depend on it! And remember, auditions do not have to be a nerve- wracking experience. Keep in mind that you and your directors are at the auditions for the same reason: to put on a fun show! AUDITION TIPS 1. Be prepared! Study the songs & be comfortable singing with expression and energy! 2. Be confident: speak clearly, sing with confidence and support, and do your best! 3. Warm up beforehand (your voice and your body!) 4. Your audition starts when you walk into the room, not just when you sing. 5. Get a good night’s sleep the night before and a healthy breakfast to start your day. 6. Most importantly: HAVE FUN! Music The audition material for each character is listed below. Choose one song that will show us everything you’ve got! Please be familiar with the other selections in case we would like to hear more from you.

  • Lyrics “Ya Got Trouble” from the Music
    “Ya Got Trouble” from The Music Man Context (from Wikipedia): In July 1912, a traveling salesman, "Professor" Harold Hill (Robert Preston), arrives in the fictional location of River City, Iowa, intrigued by the challenge of swindling the famously stubborn natives of Iowa ("Iowa Stubborn"). Masquerading as a traveling band instructor, Professor Hill plans to con the citizens of River City into paying him to create a boys' marching band, including instruments, uniforms, and music instruction. Once he has collected the money and the instruments and uniforms have arrived, he will hop the next train out of town, leaving them without their money or a band. With help from his associate Marcellus Washburn (Buddy Hackett), who is now living in River City and is the only one who knows Hill's real name, "Gregory," Professor Hill incites mass concern among the parents of River City that their young boys are being seduced into a world of sin and vice by the new pool table in town ("Ya Got Trouble"). He convinces them that a boys' marching band is the only way to keep the boys of the town pure and out of trouble, and begins collecting their money ("76 Trombones"). Lyrics Harold: Well, ya got trouble, my friend, right here, I say, trouble right here in River City. Why sure I'm a billiard player, Certainly mighty proud I say I'm always mighty proud to say it. I consider that the hours I spend With a cue in my hand are golden. Help you cultivate horse sense And a cool head and a keen eye.

    Civil War Study Guide.qxd 9/13/01 10:31 AM Page 3 MUSIC THEATRE INTERNATIONAL MUSIC THEATRE INTERNATIONAL is one of the world’s major dramatic licensing agencies, specializing in Broadway, Off-Broadway and West End musicals. Since its founding in 1952, MTI has been responsible for supplying scripts and musical materials to theatres worldwide and for protecting the rights and legacy of the authors whom it represents. It has been a driving force in cultivating new work and in extending the production life of some of the classics: Guys and Dolls, West Side Story, Fiddler On The Roof, Les Misérables, Annie, Of Thee I Sing, Ain’t Misbehavin’, Damn Yankees, The Music Man, Evita, and the complete musical theatre works of composer/lyricist Stephen Sondheim, among others. Apart from the major Broadway and Off- Broadway shows, MTI is proud to represent youth shows, revues and musicals which began life in regional theatres and have since become worthy additions to the musical theatre canon. MTI shows have been performed by 30,000 amateur and professional theatrical organizations throughout the U.S. and Canada, and in over 60 countries around the world. Whether it’s at a high school in Kansas, by an all-female troupe in Japan or the first production of West Side Story ever staged in Estonia, productions of MTI musicals involve over 10 million people each year. Although we value all our clients, the twelve thousand high schools who perform our shows are of particular importance, for it is at these schools that music and drama educators work to keep theatre alive in their community.
