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

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

I love your suggestion, George's mum. Do you know where to download the music from? Thanks

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
