music is my life!!!

Do i stand a chance?OK i know i've posted loads about this in the last few months, but the auditions are on Sunday for my youth theatre's performance of Les Mis School Edition  
Look, we had these workshops last night and i found out there are only 5 other girls going for Fantine, one of whom played Eliza when we did MFL last year, and is 18 now 
I'm 16, and i think she's my main competition for Fantine... 
I feel i really understand the role and i get all emotional in the last verse  so they can't say i'm not putting EVERYTHING into it 
My voice is REALLY strong and even on those low notes i can hold them for ages 
How can i make myself stand out? I'm wearing full costume for Fantine, and just something bright for Madam Thenardier (if we're going for Eppy and Fantine, we only have to audition for one of them, cuz they're so similar )
THanks for any advice I'll keep all you lovelies updated

You'll probably get better advice on the audition board. This is a crowd of people who fangirl minor characters and can recite the Broadway revival opening cast by heart, not a crowd of casting directors.
I predict a bunch of off-topic replies about how crazy your casting people are for combining auditions for Fantine and Eponine because OMG Eponine is a straight-up belt role and Fantine needs much more flexibility than that. (Because seriously. That is crazy.)

THanks for your help Another reason they're combining them is cuz about 40 girls have applied to be Eppy, so i think they're trying to save time
i'll try on the auditions forum

Fantine

Wow, 40 girls for Eponine?
My best advice is... Do your best

6 actually  lol there are a pretty strong group of sops in the group too, but i really CAN'T sing it! 
Thanks Fantine, I've decided I'm gonna wear a black belt coering the join between a black skirt and a blue top in the 'Fantine style' I'll wear my character shoes to make me look taller (I can move in them anyway ) and my hair's gonna be long and curly (It's golden blonde anyway )
I've even got a necklace that looks like it has a locket on it from my mother!
I shall keep all of you guys updated on what happens!
.... thanks for all your help
