Audition Help? I need a song and monologue.?

Question:I'm having trouble finding a monologue as good as mine last year. I'm very good with serious monologues, in fact I won city in a solo serious catergory. I need some monologue suggestions. Anything, books, or whatever. I also need to find a song, I'm an alto, but I can't go really really low. I don't care what type of song it is, but I'd prefer an upbeat showtune. I also like Les Miserables :D

I think you should stretch your abilities, and go with a really good comedy piece. As an actor, you are expected to be able to do any emotion on command. I would go with looking through Ellen DeGeneres books, and pick a chapter to memorize, and preform. As for a song, go for a song with a wide range, that best shows off what you can do, since i don't know what you are auditioning for, i don't have a certain piece, but look for one with a similar sound, or use a song from the show itself.

and you are asking people on yahoo answers?go to your teacher for advice.

Here are some monologues
