Acting in Plays, Singing/duet musical

Question
Hi I'm also trying to find a song for a competition. Me and my guy friend want to do a duet together but something that is also comedic. We looked into Monty Python but we're still unsure of what to do any suggestions?

Answer
Hi there Erica.  Thanks for writing.  

Without knowing your ability or your voice or your personality, it is difficult for me to match you with any specific suggestions.  What I can do though is encourage you to go to the library and pull out musicals.  Listen to lots of them (it can be a lot of fun especially with a friend) and choose a song that you like.  Do the best you can on that song.  

Monty Python is a good start for sure.  

Hopefully that gives you an idea of a place to look.
