Having performed as Maria in WSS myself, I choose to face some of the songs, prior to mastering the accent in my lines. I found it helpful to listen to a couple lines of my songs at a time, and learn just those. This helped reduce the stress of learning a new accent. Also, American pop artists typically exhibit perfect enunciation, so check out Billboards top songs, and attempt to imitate their accent, even if it sounds quite unlike the songs you will be performing.
