You Can’t Go Home
From the award-winning musical Main-Travelled Roads, this is one of the most touching and meaningful songs in the MTW catalog. Will Hannan, the former suitor of Aggie Dingman, left town years ago on an angry impulse. Now, he is returning home and rediscovering his childhood haunts- and he also hopes to make amends with Aggie.

Play Along
Also from the Award-winning musical Main-Travelled Roads, play along is a great crowd pleaser. If possible, it is fun to call up a young woman from the audience and just have her sit and pretend to be playing the piano. Without that, you can introduce it by saying that your character is sitting next to a girl at her piano lesson and he just might make her a little nervous.

Crazy
Here is a super fun song for younger men (or women) to perform. From Pots and Pan, our sequel to Peter Pan, this is Peter explaining that attitude is just as important as talent when it comes to fighting pirates.
Note, this song can be trimmed easily for auditions, etc..

Engajed
If you know Tom Sawyer, you know his famous Engagement to Becky Thatcher. From our musical, Becky Thatcher, this is a great musicalization of that scene. If possible, this is a great song where the singer can really play it up to the audience.

Creamery Man
Another great song from the award-winning Main-Travelled Roads, this is a great song for a young man to sing.
NOTE: Although the recording is a group number, this song plays great as a solo.
