so my audition requires a 16 bar uptempo, but I always feel like I'm cutting my music too short. I'm leaning toward Don't Marry Me, from The Flower Drum Song or Luck Be a Lady from Guys and Dolls. If you look at the sheet music, 16 bars of 2/4 lasts about 10 seconds. Is it acceptable for me to double that since the song is so fast, and count the music in 4/4 so that the song is 16 bars of 4/4? otherwise, does anyone have a suggestion for a good 16 bar uptempo for a young bass type baritone?

i'm looking for colleges that will allow me to study musical theatre and communications/mass media at the same time. i know USC has this, and i'm hoping to find other colleges/universities that do.

So i'm a 15 year old guy, sophomore in high school. I got 3 sisters and a brother. My passion is musical theatre, but my parents won't let me do shows. They say that it cost too much and they don't like driving me there. It cost about $500 to do a show, but is that too much to you? the studio is like a 15 minute drive down a highway, but my mom hates driving me that way. My dad says i have to concentrate in school, but im a straight A student and i can handle it! and it's not even like i can drive myself; my dad won't let me get my permit when i turn 15 1/2 because i'm "too young." i'd try to get a ride with friends, but there aren't many of them who have this same interest with me!

What is wrong with my parents? Why don't they understand that i like theatre? Why do they think i'm too young?

well wenever i sing alone, i think that i sound fine, n i hit all the right notes wenever im practicing songs. but wen im in choir, its like my range got a lot smaller, n i cant seem to hit the low notes i kno i can hit bcos ive worked on it quite a lot. but wenever im in choir its like i sing an octave lower than wen i practice alone...i m totally lost n confused about wat happens. i wana b able to sing the low notes comfortably, bcos i kno i can, just not in choir. anyone kno wats goin on?
