I think what's important is that you know exactly what your daughter is going in for. Is it theatre or pop? I would recommend being prepared on both levels. A commercial agent would not handle your daughters theatre auditions and vice versa, however, you may be "floated" around the agency and introduced to several agents that handle different things.

I would recommend being prepared for everything your daughter is comfortable with.

As far as what she should wear... make sure she looks her age. Don't get "done up" just be a young girl. Be as "real" as you possibly can.

Hope this helps!!

As far as singing - make sure the song is age appropriate. Have 2 contrasting songs prepared - uptempo and ballad - which show range. Chose songs that she is very comfortable with, this can be a stressful situation, it's not the time for something new.

Depending on where she is going, she may be asked to sing a Capella.

There are many threads on what to expect in individual management offices - do a search. Great Luck!!
