the full cast info says that Donna’s range tops at an A5.  I can’t find anywhere in the show that she sings that high!? I’m music directing a production soon and need to verify the top of this character’s range. Can any one help?

She does sing that note as written, but the entire is written an octave higher than it's sung.  So it's actually A4.
