Went to see a High School Performance of Newsies and it BLEW MY MIND
I wasn’t expecting much, but the exceeded my expectations! They had a Broadway way set and an actual orchestra come play the music. AND THE GUY WHO PLAYED JACK KELLY WAS JUST THE BEST!!! Such a voice!
Basically I had a great night
Also to make it better my friend who played Teddy Roosevelt told everyone on the cast who I was (because he knows Newsies is my favorite musical) so when they came out after the show everyone I went up to knew who I was and was asking if they did good enough and what not. THEY TOLD ME IT MADE THEIR NIGHT KNOWING I THOUGHT THEY DID GOOD we don’t deserve theater kids
Quotes from tonight’s Newsies rehearsal
Director: STOP TAP DANCING FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
Les: it’s a bad song
Jack: you’re a bad song
Les: hey!
Jack: sorry, you’re a great song
Stage crew: *wooshing food towards each other’s mouths like you would for a toddler* Les: what are you doing?
Stage crew: we’re airplaning each other
Jack: that sounds like a sex position
Les: can I say something crazy? Will you marry me?
Pulitzer: absolutely fucking not
Director: Medda did amazing!!!
Race: YESSSS
Newsies: cheering
Medda: huh?!?- whaaa?
Jack: MAM. MEDDA APPRECIATION MOMENT
Jack: minute by minute, that’s how you win it, ketchup seize the day
Pulitzer: WHAT?
Jack: :)
Jack: Crutchie, there are no words to describe how amazing you have been. You’re incredible and I love you.
Davey: what abt me?
Jack: you’re great too, but Crutchie’s my… he’s my Crutchie.
Davey: I’m not dealing with this shit anymore
Director: Race and Muriel keep having all these little moments on stage. It makes it feel real, you know? Reactions! Yes! Moments! Yes! You’ve got your buddies! You’re excited! You’re tough soft boys! Now get out there and SHOW ME!
after re-watching Newsies the other day i thought i’d draw crutchie jack and davey and a really quick spot. (i did mess up both spot and jack but meh)
i also did a few little quote pieces that aren’t the best but were quite fun to do.
"It ain't lyin'. It's just improving the truth a little."
Do you ever think Davey gets annoyed with the boys’ singing and dancing musical numbers???
Jack: PULITZER ANDD HEARST THEY THINK WERE NOTHIN’ — ARE WE NOTHIN’?!?!!!
Newsies: NOOOOOO!!!!!
Davey: Seriously guys, I’m organizing a union not a theater troupe!!!!!
Newsies AU/bad trailer
Davey: Now is the time to seize the day
Jack: I’d rather tell you what I’m hoping for tonight *wink wink*
Hey, @just-too-slow and I started a Newsies account on Instagram! Go follow us @ newsies_of_new_york!!
Something I just discovered in the 1992 Newsies movie that makes me love it even more, is in King of New York, and I think it's Snitch.. He helps Boots off the table at one point. 😂 Like, hands on waist and everything. It was so cute! And another cute thing I saw, I've never seen anyone talk about it before, is during the song, in the background, you can see three waiters from Jacobi's and one of them is vibing with the Newsies! It's adorable! 😍😂
Davey: how are you doing today?
Les: my wig's snatched just like that *dabs* finna holla at a *whips* mothertrucker like a butt cheek on a stick, sis snapped, let's get this bread and hit that--
Davey, crying: I don't understand what you're saying
Jack: if I run and jump at Davey, he'll catch me
Davey: no no no I'm holding coffee--!
Davey: *drops coffee, grabs Jack*
Jack: see?
Jack and Crutchie, holding hands: 😊💕❤🥺🥰💕😘❤
Davey, forcing them apart: tHAt'S Not SoCIaL DIStanCinG
Anyone else up for playing this?
MONOPOLY ~Newsies Broadway Edition!
Game pieces >
Hat - Les
Art palette - Jack kelly
Newsies sash - Davey jacobs
Type writter - Katherine
Cigar - Racetrack
Crutch - Crutchie
Feather fan - Bowurey beauty's
Glass of seltzer - Albert
Instead of Monopoly money they have to use coins
Instead of community chest it would be Headline board
If you land on go to jail it would be called Get sent to the refuge by snyder
If you have the crutch you have to stay in jail intell there are only 2 people left in the game 3 if you count the person who just got back in the game, but you have to pay 60 cents since your safe.
Free parking space would be changed to Get away from the bulls
Just visiting will be changed to Helping escape the refuge and if you choose to help someone escape you would have to either role doubles or pay 60 cents to get them out of the refuge.
Also one of the fun cards would be called "Startin a strike" you would have to throw the coins in the air from the bank and try to get more money
The middle of the board is newsies square
Some of the properties would be,
Santa fe
(Basically all of the places in New York that had newsies)
And medda's theater
And more places from the show
If you get passed go you get 200 and it'll be known as "Carryin' the banner"
There will be a couple spots on the board where you get into trouble with the dalanceys. You have to pick one other person to roll one dice and if you roll higher then them your safe but if they roll higher then you you loose 50 cents. But if you get a tie you both pay 25.
If you loose it's not bankruptcy... It's loosin' the strike
Also whoever wins the game is "The King of new york"
Thank you for listening to my Ted talk.
(The broadway Edition!!)
Davey: Imagine if someone handed you a box of all the things you've lost in your life.
Romeo: Oh wow! You found my childhood innocence! I was looking for that!
Jack: My will to live! I haven't seen that in years!
Spot: I knew I lost my heart somewhere!
Crutchie: Could you guys lighten up a little?
Race:....All of my homework.
Davey: Spot I have to ask you to please be respectful.
Spot: And I have to politely decline.
Crutchie: Jack, are you okay?
Jack: Yeah.....why?
Crutchie: You asked the cashier at the store earlier if damage repair shampoo worked on emotions.
Soo apparently I’m going to be apart of a mini production of newsies????
They’re casting me as an ensemble member but still???
I’m shook??????
Les: Jack can I have a soda?
Jack: Did you ask Davey?
Les: Yeah....
Jack: What did he say?
Les: He said no..
Jack: Then why are you asking me?
Les: Because he’s not the boss of you
Jack: This is a trap. This is a trap. This is a trap.
