i wish people treated medda as if she was more than jacks mother figure. yes she is that and yes its beautiful that shes willing to be that for him & the fact that he has that support system & safety net is wonderful HOWEVER, shes also a black woman in 1899 who is successful enough to run her own theatre. shes also a woman who was willing to risk losing her theatre or getting blacklisted because she helped those kids and allowed them to hold a rally in her theatre. (in the book she literally mentions the papers have power over her too. if reviews don’t get published her career is at risk). shes an Incredible and mesmerizing performer who can fill seats nightly. shes probably saved a few of the boweries from ending up on the streets. she lets jack come in and get paid for doing art which he just Enjoys. clearly shes just willing to Help people who heed it. shes an incredibleeee character with an enormous heart and while she does love jack she is so so much more than “jacks mom” :’)))

"My child is fine"
No, they aren't. They are singing and dancing around in the living room, pretending to be a newsboy striking.

some proposals for places i would put an f-bomb in newsies if i could only have one:
"What, you mean like a strike?"/"Well, you heard Davey, we're on strike!"/"Fuck"
"I'll learn to make do with the mansion, the oil well, the diamonds, the yacht... with Andy, Eduardo the pontiff and Scott... and Frank... oh, and my fucking bank."
"Oh, c'mon, Katherine! Those boys are counting on you!... Oh, you poor fucking boys."
"And we found our voice!"/"And I lost my fucking shoe!"
"Write it in ink or in blood it's the same either way/They're gonna fucking pay"
literally any of jack's lines in watch what happens (reprise)
"...or cross the Brooklyn Bridge... hell, you can't even get out of your own fucking office."
"He's a fucking sellout!"
"I trust you know my daughter, Katherine."/"What the fuck?"
"My father has eyes on every corner of this fucking city! He doesn't need me spying for him."
"If you weren't going to Santa Fe..."/"Yeah, and if you weren't a fucking heiress."
"NEWSIES! WE FUCKING WON!"

So everyone is always talking about Medda being like a mother to Jack or the newsies but what about Denton?
Dad Denton needs more recognition

My friend just told me Medda doesn't have any essential purpose for the plot like I WILL SHAVE YOUR TEETH IF YOU EVER SAY THAT AGAIN YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND

Look, having watched newsies as many times as I have there are certain things I'm willing to skip through, you agreed to watch it with me, I appreciate it, I'll accept your request, it's rare, but I might.
But, I'm sorry, you're suggesting we skip over Miss Medda Larkin?! Sorry?! The star of our show?! I mean c'mon, She owns the joint!
