Questions for theatre singers on T

Hello! I’m considering going on T, and so I’ve been looking at trans-male theatre performers and how T affects the voice. I am an Alto without much professional training (my range is F3-F5), and the majority of singers I’ve seen were previously sopranos and are now tenors.

I’m worried about getting a lower range than I’m comfortable with, since most of my dream roles are in the tenor/baritenor range. I would love to hear anyone’s perspective

Songs with bod percussion?

Hi there! I’m currently working on compiling songs for a cabaret I am music directing, and I think it would be fun to have a song that is a capella and uses body percussion! (stomping, clapping, ect.) Is there a musical/song from a musical that you believe has a good example of that? Thanks a bunch!!

im interested in musical improv, but im not a great singer

hi, ive recently started getting involved with the improv scene in my community and i love musical improv especially! i’ve been a “make up a song about what im doing”guy since as long as i can remember, so improv - and the sub genre of singing improvisation - has a huge draw to me. i certainly like to sing, but im not very good at it. im ok with singing like shit if it’s just for myself, it just might not lend itself well on stage alongside better singers 😞 anyone who got into musical improv not knowing how to sing have any tips or advice for someone like me? or advice from anyone with experience on this lol

What would I put as my vocal range on an audition form?

So my theatre, on their audition forms, have a musical theatre spot. On this spot, you must list your vocal range/voice type. I’m auditioning for my first musical in a day, and I have no idea how to figure it out or what I should put. I know I’m not bass or counter tenor lol. I’m a girl that is in her teens, ig this helps any. my brother says I’m a tenor but idk at the moment.
