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!"

Pulitzer the type of guy to say “I see you’ve fallen right into my trap”

Why does katherine allow herself to be used by pulitzer to humiliate Jack? I get that she might still have a relationship with her father even though they disagree about a lot, but she should not be silent in that room. This scene makes me hate her, though I realize it is really just bad writing. The writers are doing their only female character dirty and using her as a dramatic tool, just like Pulitzer is doing.
That said, given the way the play is written, I feel like the actor who plays katherine needs to act way more horrified or embarrassed or mad at Pulitzer in that scene if she ever wants me on her side again.
Lying about your name to distance yourself from your asshole dad? Totally relatable. Watching someone you've been working with be threatened by him and standing by? NO.

Pulitzer is so wild. He really put the front headline about him increasing costs for the newsies. Of all things to be the front headline.

Audition Information: Joseph Pulitzer
Character:
A pompous businessman through and through, owns the World and is concerned solely with the bottom line. Katherine’s no-nonsense father, Pulitzer doesn’t sympathize with the strikers, but he does eventually – and grudgingly – respect Jack.
Lines:
-"Whoever said war is hell wasn't trying to sell newspapers."
-"And which Jack Kelly is this? The charismatic union organizer, or the petty thief and escaped convict?"
-"That's not a bad head you've got on your shoulders."
Sing: 60 seconds of either The Bottom Line or The Bottom Line Reprise!!!
Happy auditioning! >:)

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