<p>My son’s theater teacher/director advised him to present his classical monologue first, because she thought his contemporary was stronger. He had his first audition today, and was upset, initially, when they stopped him after just one piece. He was later informed that they sometimes decide to only see one. He was called back, so apparently they felt that, if he was comfortable enough with Shakespeare, he was worth calling back immediately. He got to present his contemporary piece during the call-back.</p>
