<p>I know JRB is generally a big no-no because his music tends to be hard to sightread. But is JRB acceptable to use at an audition where you have to provide your own accompaniment (ie: Unified auditions)?</p>
<p>Just wondering...</p>
<p>His songs generally have great acting arcs - in addition to the accompaniment question, there may be 2 other issues.... if you are singing a cut, is it long enough to convey the acting intent you want? And - gee, he sure is popular with kids - you may be running into tons of people singing his stuff.</p>
<p>A bit off the subject, but I thought if there were JRB fans out there you might like to hear a brand new song he has written for an upcoming production. He came to Elon University last week to teach it to Elon MTers to be part of a convocation that featured Hal Prince. It was the world premiere of "A Little More Homework".
