Has anyone gone in for 'Peter and the Starcatcher' before? I'm probably going to sing something Disney, but I've never seen the show and would appreciate any specific suggestion. Thanks!

It's not a musical, you just need to show that you can sing in tune and be fun, manly, silly, and a storyteller. Sing a pirate shipsong.

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

Here are the songs that I would recommend:

Bread - from THE BAKER'S WIFE
There'll Always Be a Lady Fair - from ANYTHING GOES
The Ballad of Mack the Knife - from THE THREEPENNY OPERA

Sorry I can't think of more, but I don't have every single song from every single show memorized.
