MUSICAL-SPECIFIC AUDITION SONGS

The Best Audition


Songs for Mean Girls –
by Character
September 12, 2019

Do you have an upcoming audition for


Mean Girls? Well unless you have
specifically been asked to sing a song
from the show that you’re auditioning
for, it’s generally best not to. That
said, you should still show off similar
vocals and personality. So here’s our
list of audition songs for Mean
Girls, by character.

Mean Girls is a newer contemporary


musical that first premiered in 2017.
Because of that, most of the songs
below are also from the 2000s. In
addition, many of these songs have
high school themes to them in order
to match the style of the show.

Step 1: Read your audition


details
Please read your audition details
carefully, as they sometimes specify
the type of song they’d like to hear (a
ballad, something upbeat, etc.). Make
sure to select a song that’s
appropriate for your specific casting
call.

Step 2: Get to know the


show
In casting calls, they often ask for you
to be “familiar with the show”. And
even if it’s not requested, it’s
generally assumed. One way to do
this is to listen to the Mean Girls cast
album➝ while reading through the
synopsis.

Step 3: Pick an audition


song
Next, based on your personality
and vocal type, decide whether you’d
like to audition for the ensemble or a
specific character. Just keep in mind
that if you audition for a specific
character, you still might not be
chosen for that particular role.

There’s usually a spot on the audition


form asking if you are open to being
in the ensemble or accepting a
different role. I would suggest ticking
that box and taking whatever you are
offered. Every role is important, and
you will earn valuable experience in a
show.

And on that same note, even if you


audition for the ensemble (and not a
specific character), there’s always a
chance you might get chosen for a
leading/supporting role!

To summarize, keep an open mind


and try not to take the process too
seriously. And when you’re ready,
choose the song that you feel most
comfortable with from the list below.
