traditional musical theatre piece - i.e. Gershwin, Porter, Coward,
Rodgers and Hart, Rodgers and Hammerstein, Lerner & Lowe, etc.  The
second song need not be traditional musical theatre - it need not even
be a musical theatre song - but keep in mind that contemporary pop/rock
music and musical scores influenced by pop/rock are not very useful to
us.

musical theatre piece - i.e.. Gershwin, Porter, Coward, Rodgers and
Hart, Rodgers and Hammerstein, Lerner & Lowe, etc.).

An accompanist will be provided but please bring your music.
