That would be amazing! I'm thinking of portraits of the actor's persona in costume for the cast and also certain scenes, along with Jack's drawing of Katherine and his Santa Fe/Pulitzer painting.
hey @artemis-lynn I just had a few questions about the newsies production
Will the show be released for everyone to see
will the participants show their faces
what do the stage managers have to do
how long does the “application” for stage manager have to be
is this production still happening? I saw some stuff about fandom drama when I was scrolling through the tag (I don't know enough about it to feel any sort of way) but if the production is still on I would love to be even just some non-audition character (maybe Hannah idk)
Thanks
yeah, its still happening! I think someone already wants Hannah, but I'll get back to you!
Um, wow. That's literally so good, thank you so much!
Extra! Extra! David Jacobs Audition!
Hi! You can call me Tex or Vess, either is fine.
(She/her)
Unfortunately this is only my second best 'poor guys head is spinning' that I recorded because my best one wouldn't upload :(
Psst! You should cast me because I'm basically David Jacobs irl. Actually!
No but in all seriousness, he's my favorite character / the character who I relate to the most. I've loved acting and singing pretty much my whole life, although I've never done any musicals (because I can't dance) so this would be a new experience for me. I'm really good at getting deep into my character and I would love the chance to bring David Jacobs to life!
Thank you for your time and consideration!
As of right now, we don't, but you sound awesome!!
Audition Information: Les Jacobs
Character:
Davey’s cheeky younger brother, is inspired by the freedom of the newsies and loves their independent lifestyle. A precocious and natural newsie, Les is an intuitive salesboy and a pint-sized charmer. He should present as younger than the other newsies.
Lines:
-"I’m ten. Almost."
-"50-50! You wouldn’t try to pull a fast one on a little kid."
-"You heard me. I’ve been swattin’ skirts away all morning. Fame is one intoxicatin’ potion. And this girl,
Sally, she’s a plum."
Sing: 60 seconds of the World Will Know/Watch What Happens reprise (Your pick! :D)
Oh my god. WOW. That's awesome, Flintt! That will be enough for the song, is it the harmony part Les sings?

Inspired by vaudeville performer Aida Overton Walker, this big-voiced saloon singer and star of the Bowery offers her theater as a safe haven for the newsies. An astute entertainer with great comic delivery, she’s a good friend to Jack and stands firmly behind the newsies in their fight for justice.
Lines:
-"Jack Kelly, man of mystery. Get yourself down here and give me a hug."
-"Step out of his way so’s he can get a better look. Theater’s not only entertaining, it’s educational."
-"Boys, lock the door and stay all night. You’re
with Medda now!"
