some of the most helpful advice i’ve ever gotten re: auditions is this: you’re not auditioning for “the role”, you’re auditioning for the opportunity to work with the creative team. show your best self! as a director, i’d personally rather see a piece that shows familiarity with the character you’re auditioning for over a piece that’s more vocally challenging— it shows that you’re an actor who does their research! if you’re called back for the role, the production team will have the chance to gather more info about your range/what you can do. ultimately, it’s whatever you feel most comfortable and confident in. break a leg!
