Hey, kids! Let’s put on a show

I am brainstorming the program for MacKenna’s synchronized swim show. Yes, I realize MacKenna is a fictional character, going to a fictional high school, in a fictional town, and her synchro team is, in fact, fictional.

I still think compiling a list of songs on the fictional program for the fictional show lends a certain amount of verisimilitude.

Theme: movie music. This can be the obvious, like songs from a musical, or soundtrack music, as long as it’s fairly short (no seven minute numbers please). So far I have:

  • Stars and Stripes Forever ~ Sophomore number (ties into a joke re: typo in the printed program)
  • All That Jazz ~ MacKenna and Constance’s duet
  • Greased Lightin’ ~ Junior number
  • Surrey with the Fringe on Top ~ Freshman number
  • Lady Marmalade ~ Becca’s solo

I need ten more songs to round out the show! All suggestions considered and much appreciated.
