Hi. Does anyone know where I can find audition sides for the Jason Robert Brown Musical Parade?

Thanks.

So, audition sides for any show, really, don't float around the internet, you kinda just have to go through the script and pick them yourself.

Thats what I thought, too - but then i was like: what? Audition sides are "out there"?
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Wouldn't it depend on what the casting director/theatre company is requesting?  It's not like there are standard sides that are always used for every production.  If I'm the music director of Parade and I only have time to hear 16 bars, do I want to hear You Don't Know This Man, or do I maybe want a part of This Is Not Over Yet to hear how you handle harmony?

I think it would be easy enough to find a random company's choice for sides online, but if you're looking to audition for a specific production you need to find out which material they're requesting.
