When auditioning for a musical, it is frowned upon to sing something from the same show. "Grease" is a pop-style musical, so surely you can find something that is similar to the music and Danny as a character. I'm guessing that you are tenor, so I strongly suggest something Ren sings in "Footloose". Listen to:



Footloose

I Can't Stand Still

Dancing is Not a Crime



He also has some duets and ensemble numbers. "She's Like the Wind" from "Dirty Dancing" suits Danny really well. You might want to try Tommy's monologue from "Tommy Boy".



TOMMY: Dude, you'll never believe what happened to me today. It all started when I woke up this morning. You know usually I press the snooze button about four or five times...but today was different, when I heard the alarm, I just sprang out of bed and said to myself, "Today is going to be a great day!" I don't know why I said it, but I was feeling great! I got in the shower and found myself humming a cool song I heard the day before. While I was combing my hair in the mirror, I noticed that not only was it a great hair day, but my skin seemed different too....alive and glowing, and no it wasn't that new acne cream I'd been using...it was LIFE! So instead of dragging around, I threw on my clothes and headed out. When I got on the bus, the girls seemed to look at me differently. I thought maybe it was my confidence, or the hair, but then I thought who the heck cares, they were looking at me! So I looked back at them and they giggled. I was on top of the world! I went and got a seat in the back of the bus...then it came to me, I had a presentation due in first period... I wasn't about to let that ruin my day. I knew the material and I was on a roll. A few moments later, walking down the hallway, it was like a movie, almost every group of girls turned to look at me, it started to become really spooky actually. My next thought was, with my luck, I should be playing lottery. I got to my first period class and sat down. It's almost like I could feel Jamie, that hottie that sits behind me in class, staring at the back of my head...It felt great! And of course, I was called first to read my presentation to the class, so I strolled up to the front of the room with a gleaming smile...I actually winked at this girl who snickered at me in the front row...man was I getting bold! I couldn't help myself though, this never happened to me before, it was like a dream, and right when I was getting ready to start my presentation, the teacher called me aside...I thought I'd gone too far with the winking, but decided not to lose my cool and casually stroll over to her to recieve my reprimand. Dude, when she started talking to me, my stomach dropped to my feet, like I was on a fast roller coaster ride, and I could feel my face turning as white as a ghost. It was like the whole day flashed before my eyes. Well I thanked the teacher anyway, turned away from the class, swallowed my pride and zipped-up my fly.

That's definitely a good song if you're auditioning for Rizzo, but I think it's a bit too belty for Sandy. I actually did this show last year, and I auditioned with Show Off from Drowsy Chaperone and one of Kathy's monologues from Singin in the Rain. It obviously worked since I was cast as Sandy, and I guess Show Off is a pretty belty song, too. My Strongest Suit just seems more Rizzo to me for some reason...go figure ;) Also, if it's for school or at a smaller theatre, you don't have to worry much about it being an overused song, but if it's at a larger theatre, that might be a factor to think about.

Audition with, "summer nights," and if you can play a CD, play one and let the Sandy parts go by. Or do "Greased lightning!" A monologue you can do, I can't think of one off the top of my head. Try watching the movie and decide on a good one.

i was in grease about a year ago and played the role of sandy. the girl who got rizzo in my cast did an amazing rendition of "where am i going?" from sweet charity. she sang it really tough and manipulated the song to fit rizzo's character. if you'd be able to do that the song could be a really great audition piece.
