Husk: Of course there is.

Angel: *completely flabbergasted* Well, don’t say it like this happens every day!

Husk: *completely head-over-heels* Oh, Angel.

“once and for all we won’t carry no banners that don’t spell freedom”

the only sort of interesting thing about finally not having a bootleg for newsies is that i can interpret and recreate it for myself (and for all of you!). anyway this solidarity sign jack & race do center stage behind the printing press changed my life lololol.

#there’s another very ‘choreographer/director staged this show’ moment in uhh #jack’s speech to the scabs that literally . wow haha the visual. is so good. #newsies #newises uk #uksies #newises art #newises fanart #racetrack higgins #jack kelly #fizz draws #fizz freaks #hi everyone #newsies fanart

that scene where jack is going off at katherine for not telling him her real name and she tells him he didn’t even ask for it, and jack francis sullivan kelly is like “i wouldn’t think i had to!”

#i know jack’s ‘real name’ just isn’t canon to the stage show but it’s so much funnier this way #she finds out somewhere down the line and Never lets him live it down #katherine doing a mock deep voice: you double crossed me! #newsies #jack kelly #katherine pulitzer #katherine plumber

not ten minutes into The Heart of Rock and Roll Corey Cott’s character is all “everyone needs music! music is life!” and I thought, “Donny Novitski, is that you?”

then in the resolution he’s telling a girl “what we feel for each other is real” and I’m like “Donny? Novitski? Is that you?”

anyway you can see this man sing in real life for $25 during previews so why not, nyc

#the heart of rock and roll #corey cott #bandstand #donny novitski #broadway #yall i might have been a bit unhinged at the stage door telling corey i saw him in my first ever bway show ten years ago #the newsies nostalgia got to me ok #i legit never see jukebox musicals but the chance to see corey cott sing live again was too good to pass up

had a jack kelly moment earlier and tried(and failed, miserably) to paint santa fe earlier, realized i Do Not know what santa fe looks like. and then did it anyways

#no i will not be showing it #it looks like shit unfortunately #but i did do a good painting of a lake amd forest for my mom #did it in the middle of industrial arts bcoz we are not doing anything (we have done nothing today lol it was my homeroom teachers last day #we just ate cake and shit #and picked up garbage outside (for earth day methinks) #and make bookmarks in english. then we used the entire gym stage to play ping pong coz we didnt wanna play flag football #anygays. good day) #damien shut up challenge #newsies #jack kelly

Question: why can't Broadway musicals tape their performance and put it up on a platform for rental while the shows still on Broadway?

Obviously you charge a fair price for the rental, make it like 48 hours and cost maybe whatever their general admission ticket costs. Then, after the musical comes off Broadway, you make that original cast recording avaliable to buy permanently (like including downloads) for that general admission ticket price and knock down the rental price.

Now you'd have to either come up with a streaming service or license it out to one which is not ideal, but it would vastly improve the availability of musical theater especially to people who live outside of New England or people who don't have thousands of dollars to drop just to go see a musical. Not to mention it could help make newer musicals more accessible and easily spread, and don't get me started on accessibility especially when it comes to physical disabilities that would disallow travel or actually seeing a musical in person. This would also allow people to see the musical and then maybe go watch it in person, which increases revenue.

It also allows a continuous revenue stream for the creative team and possibly actors (depending on how contracts are structured), particularly in cases of musicals with specific historical or literary settings that could be used in classrooms (think Hamilton, West Side Story, Fiddler on the Roof, the upcoming The Outsiders, or like every Shakespear play ever). Or even if a musical is really popular and gets a cult following like 30 years later, it would be available in a watchable format and not just as a soundtrack. Plus it'd get rid of people going to musicals for the sole purpose of uploading a slime tutorial.

#broadway #musical theatre #broadway musicals #i say this because I wanna see the new outsiders musical and can't afford too #like it would be probably 2K conservatively to do a full trip #if I just went for the show and maybe an overnight it'd be like 1200 #which is 1200 I don't have #the outsiders #the outsiders a new musical #ponyboy curtis #darry curtis #sodapop curtis #two bit mathews #dally winston #johnny cake #johnny cade #steve randle #alexander hamilton #hamilton musical #west side story #fiddler on the roof #idk I feel like this could work #but theater people are either the nicest humans #or the most pretentious #and I feel like a lot of broadway people can be pretensious #like i live not within driving distance of NY it's a literal kidney for me to see a broadway show #it's money I will Probably never have #a lot of people will never have #so just let us have this #Hamiton and Newsies have stage recordings that are both wildly popular

@ anyone else who’s seen London Newsies, did anyone else hear Spot call Jack an asshole after the rally? Because I haven’t seen anyone else talk about it but I was sitting 3 rows up in Brooklyn and heard it very clearly - it was truly iconic

#spot was truly iconic tbh #the way she played her was less stoic than the other portrayals I’ve seen #she was silly while still being tough and intimidating and I loved that so much #also imagine being able to portray a character who has all of 10 minutes of stage time #and being able to show that she’s tough yet silly and strong and feminine and loyal #like #I swear the acting in this production was top notch #newsies #newsies london #spot Conlon #west endsies

thinking about newsies having superpowers in an X-men / The Nevers sort of universe.

I wanted to give Davey invisibility (except he’s terrible at controlling it and will just disappear at random), and Les super speed (except he’s terrible at controlling it and will just disappear at random) because they work well for the characters

then I realised that those are two of the three powers the kids from the Incredibles have, and now I’m *forced* to give Sarah every power imaginable so that she can be jack-jack

#newsies #please share any newsie superpowers head canons you may have #i'm still at the word vomit on a word document stage #this is turning into a new story because i am going through some stuff and writing weird newsies fics no one will read because #the show closed weeks ago is helping by letting me ignore the fact that any of it is happening

Not to be a Delanceys apologist, but how bad of a guy can Oscar Delancey really be when he gave @this-is-macy and I one of Evan Hansen's casts?

#full transparency: this is a joke. #well the part about Oscar Delancey not being too bad is a joke. Oscar is scum. #but the part about him giving us Evan Hansen's cast is not a joke #that actually happened #Anthony Norman who played Oscar in Livesies is currently playing Evan on the DEH tour #we saw DEH on tuesday and ended up meeting one of his relatives and told her that we're big fans of Dear Evan Hansen and Newsies #she told Anthony that and then took us to stage door to meet him afterwards and that's when he gave us the cast he'd worn during the show #he was so nice! #unlike Oscar lol #oscar delancey #evan hansen #anthony norman #dear evan hansen #newsies #newsies musical #newsies 2017 #livesies #deh #musical #theatre

Pentious: You’ll ssssteal another!

Vaggie: Hey, assholes! We’ve got work to do!

Charlie: I thought that I’d surprise my mother-

Angel: If you can find her-

Everyone: Who asked you?!

*BONUS*

Alastor: It takes a smile that spreads like butter…

i hope when newsies goes back to the uk they are responsible enough this time to realize ONE ON STAGE female swing is not enough lol

#newsies #newsies uk #my biggest problem really is the boys can cover the girls but when the boys were down it was split track after split track #but god forbid one of the girls helped cover manhattan!! that was apparently too far!!! #also the fact brooklyns role call was set up for SIX people #and two days a week medda and kath had alts #so regardless brooklyn was down to 5 2/8 shows a week #an off stage girl swing couldve saved them… #but what do i know!!!!!!!!!

[welcometogrouchland]

Fucked up that the best song in the Newsies movie is the opening and it's subsequent finale reprise. Everything in between is also good but also being sung by untrained teenage boys (one of whom is a young Christian Bale fighting his own internal battle of needing to be obsessed with every role he plays vs thinking being in a musical is cringe). You kind of can't hear their individual weaknesses though when they're in a big catchy chorus number you're not meant to take too seriously. Hence, best number is Carryin' the Banner. Also in the very last section where part of the chorus yells "you got em cowboy! Go get em cowboy!' Is unmatched. Slay-ass counterpoint

#ramblings of a lunatic #not actually sure if that counts at counterpoint but whatever #anyway guess what i watched today! #good time. i was inspired by biz barclays video on it. nobody else talk to me about newsies unless it's her /j #i just loved unmatched passion for niche topics #also I'm very specifically talking about the movie version i haven't watched the stage show yet #i might but tbh i think the whole them being played by adults isn't working for me. like conceptually

I AM ACTUALLY GOING TO SEE NEWSIES HELP ????

#holy shit i am #i don't know what is happening help #i'm gonna see the fucking show #i mean i'll be with my family so they won't want me to stage door but still i'll see it ??? #crying fr #newsies #newsies uk #ely's shit

oh, some more newsies uk notes, from a disabled person and someone who grew up without parents:

crutchie/matthew’s voice breaks and he totally loses steam on the “watch me stand / watch me run” line in santa fe (prologue).

when les says, “doesn’t everyone?” in response to jack’s “you got folks?”, jack/michael does this barely-perceptible wince.

and both are such honest and real details that absolutely killed me <3

#i have honestly loved every version of crutchie but hoo boy matthew GETS IT #talking to him afterwards at stage door especially showed me how much he Understands #nox.txt #newsies #uksies #crutchie morris #jack kelly
