Audition tips for Belle from Beauty and the Beast?
-
I'm a 15 year old theatre student and I have recently been notified that I will have an opportunity to audition for Beauty and the Beast, which is what my school and another are presenting as a collaboration show as they do anually. Belle is my dream role. Although I'd play any role I'm cast in, I'm specifically going for Belle. What I'm looking for are ways I can embody Belle for the audition. I would like to sing something from the show, and although it's not in the version we're doing I'm considering singing "A Change in Me" because it has some really nice notes to showcase vocal ability. Please let me know of any other song choices similar to any she sings, and some monologues that would suit the character. I'm having most difficulty finding a monologue. Also I'd love some advice on how to portray Belle using my body. Auditions are in May, but I really, really, really want this one.

Go in confident and Be sure to make the director know that you are interested in the part of Belle but will receive any part. Be prepared with a song that shows your range and a monologue that has a character that has the same personality of Belle to show you can act like her {: Good luck!

Create your own monologue by finding a script you like, a character you like, and cutting and pasting the dialog until it's cohesive. Be extra sure that your monologue is not telling a story. You want to communicate with the auditors. I'm unfamiliar with "A Change in Me," but I know the Broadway Belle belts, so try picking a song that shows off your belting ability while remains very Belle-ish. When it comes down to movement, and how to carry yourself, you must think long and hard about the type of person Belle is. Where in her body does she store her tension? Which part of her leads the rest of her when she moves and walks? She's graceful, independent, and courageous, and that comes across in her simply moving her hair out of her eyes.
