Musical theatre

Post by x_sugarplumfairy_x »

Hiii :) can anyone recommend any good personality musical theatre songs for an 8 year old girl? Preferably looking for one which allows lots of expression and personality as she loves to perform her songs but open to any suggestions :D tia x

Well, er, at the risk of being obvious, Naughty from Matilda? Castle on a Cloud? Something from Annie?
Less obvious - I want it now (Verruca Salt), Let me Entertain You (Gypsy), The Girl I mean to Be (Secret Garden), I know things now (Into the Woods)

Look at a show called Dear Edwina, lots of songs for youngsters. Also, Disney stuff - when will my life being from Tangled etc...

Thankyou! Naughty and Castle on a cloud were her lamda exam pieces she got distinction with! So defo the kind of thing i was thinking of but sadly shes already done! So we're on the lookout for something new- would like something similar but less obvious is great too :) il have a look at the others you suggested :D x

I think if you look on the stiles and drew website they have a link to their sheet music. It's a great song and in a lovely key for younger voices
