Audition song suggestions for the character Cathy Hiatt (mezzo)

Catherine Hiatt is an aspiring actor from a small town whose exhausting career choice is only made more so by her husband’s sudden rise to fame as an author. Though he was once deeply infatuated and in love, he seems to leave her behind. They are unable to find common ground until he suddenly decides to leave her. Cathy’s point of view is anachronistic, so we meet her first at the end of her and Jamie’s relationship. Because this is a two-person play, this actor must have energy, resilience, and vocal stamina.
