into the woods?... please help? :)?

so, my highschool is doing the musical, "into the woods" im so excited for it! i actually have two questions.

1.) what part should i audition for? im 5'10, and my voice range is higher than alto, but lower than soprano. so, i'd be around a soprano 2.. right? my singing is pretty good right now. i can act quite good. ive gotten a few awards for best supporting actress. i was thinking the witch, or the bakers wife... i still dont know.

2.) what song should i audition with? (i already explained my voice above)

thank you so much! means a lot to me :) have a wonderful day!

    You sound like you should go for the Baker's wife or the witch... wow you are spot on! The Baker's wife is technically a bigger role but the witch is known for being a show stealer (that's a good thing btw :D) I personally would go for the Witch. Also for the Baker's wife you need to be comfortable with romantic scenes so idk if that's a problem... break a leg :)

    Source(s): In the show right now as Little Red :)

    Hi. Great job taking a chance and auditioning! If you're looking for a lead, I would suggest the baker's wife, since the witch goes pretty low. Another part you might be interested in is Little Red. If you're auditioning with a song from the show, you might want to try the beginning of the curtain music ( up until the "into the woods.. part) because it has a good range, or I know things now.

    Source(s): I was in the show once as the witch, have acted in over 25 musicals over 6 years, and just auditioned for this show a few days ago.
