Hi everyone! First off this forum and its members have been SO helpful to me in my college MT search…I’m going to be a senior in high school and I am starting to narrow down my audition songs/monologues and also the schools I will be applying for. I only have one monologue at the moment, and I’m not sure if it’s a good choice/overdone, etc…It’s Julie’s dramatic monologue in Passing Game by Steve Tesich. Still looking for a comedic one. My audition song ideas are -

How Can I Wait? - Paint Your Wagon (Lerner/Loewe)
You Can’t Get A Man With A Gun - Annie Get Your Gun (Berlin…not sure about this one because of the accent?)
A Quiet Thing - Flora, The Red Menace (Kander/Ebb)

Any suggestions? Are these decent choices?

And my college list so far has BFAs, BAs with MT minors, and non-auditions. I’m basically alone in this process (as my dad is clueless with MT…:P) so any help would be greatly appreciated!

My list so far:
CCM
CCPA Roosevelt
BoCo
UArts
Point Park
Marymount Manhattan (BFA and BA)
Montclair State
Northwestern (BA w/ MT program)
University of Southern California (BA/MT minor)
Columbia (BA, then audition for BFA once accepted)
Loyola U Chicago (a backup if I have a change of heart with MT)
