What is a good musical theatre number to perform solo for a pageant. I typically sing alto, but can change it to a different octive if need be.

There are the usual
"I Dreamed a Dream" and "On My Own" from Les Mis.
"Don't Cry for me Argentina" from Evita.
"As Long as He Needs Me" from Oliver.
But as amazing as those songs are, they are done by a lot of girls and I think it's never great if you sing a song that has already been sung more that twice in the same audition so I tend to go for something a bit different that will still get me noticed.
Listen to Miss Saigon and Wicked, good ones in Miss Saigon are
Movie In My Mind
Now That I've Seen Her
Wicked, Wizard and I is the best.
Go for something you feel confident singing and that is within your vocal range.

You could try, "A Whole New World" from Aladdin or "Memory" from Cats. Those are really nice ones and you can show lots of expression. Break a leg!
