Sometimes I post theatre stuff so here’s a production I did recently.
I got to play the role of Katherine Plumber in my local community theatre’s production of Newsies and had the time of my life! I still miss the cast 🥲💙 Hoping this isn’t the last time I get to be a part of such an awesome show.

This boy is trouble. That is something that David Jacobs knew for sure. From the moment he crashed against David’s chest he knew it. The mumbled half apology that the boy mumbled as he bolted away did nothing to change this fact. He was trouble. The two boys who chased him in tow proved David’s point even further. The smartly dressed scary looking ones gave the boy good chase but he was long gone. Far away, David hoped. He was far far away where he wouldn’t cause any trouble for the Jacobs’ boys. At least, he was for a moment. If David had known at the time that the moment he would walk through those ridiculously oversized gates he would be inviting trouble incarnate directly into he life he would have turned around. David Jacobs would have turned right around and marched him and his brother right over to the Sun, or the Tribune, or even all the way up to Brooklyn if he had to. David Jacobs would have been responsible, David Jacobs would have not invited the boy back into his life. But David Jacobs knew none of this, and so, he marched straight through the gates of the world, straight into the belly of the beast, and straight into trouble. He couldn’t look up, he knew from the moment they made contact, from the tanned arms that steadied him, to the quiet chuckle when he wobbled, to the red scarf tied around his neck. Yes, David Jacobs knew at that exact moment he had fallen straight into the arms of trouble, and as he slowly raised his eyes to meet those of the boy he was currently holding onto, trouble itself smiled at him, “Twice in one day huh? Think it’s fate?”

Newsies Prompts!
(I do love a good Jack/Davey story, but I have nothing against Jack/Katherine. Also these mostly revolve around the musical story line)
Let me know if y’all use these prompts or if you have any fic recommendations!
-The newsies go looking for Jack when he’s locked in basement and find him chained/beaten up
-Jack starves himself so the others can eat and people start to notice
-Jack suffers with depression or sh
-Jack gets hurt in the refuge and the others rescue him
-Jack takes crutchies place in the refuge and he gets hurt
-Jack starts do illegal things (secret fights, drugs, prostitution, etc.) to make more money to feed the newsies
-Jack goes mute after a traumatic event
-Jack stuck inside a burning building after running in to save Les, who unknown to Jack was already out
-Jack gets arrested and the newsies are at the hearing and eventually save him from the refuge
-what if in order to lower the price of papes Jack made a deal to do some illegal activities for Pulitzer?
-jack kidnapped
-s*icidal jack (maybe the newsies take shifts watching him and trying to help him)
-Jack struggles with addiction
Im here for all the angst 😅 I would love to see these with a modern twist on them too!

I (finally) saw Newsies in the West End tonight and I have so many thoughts but the one I absolutely need to get out tonight is that London Davey Jacobs is absolutely autistic.
He stims, he stutters over his thoughts, he infodumps, he fidgets when he's nervous, he has a very interesting, unique tone when speaking and has a very rigid posture.
I don't know if it was intentional or not but I've always seen Davey as autistic - in both News Boys and the Broadway adaptation - but the way Ryan Kopel chooses to portray Davey is so authentically autistic.
He's shown to be incredibly uncomfortable with social interaction and touch initially but the Newsies accept him all the same and it's beautiful to see.
My absolute favourite Davey stims were him rubbing his fingers up and down the newsie newspaper bags and him tapping his hands when Jack made him speak in front of the other News Boys.
I really loved this show. I've waited my whole life to see it and it surpassed all my expectations.

Since people liked my first newsies post here’s some more from the community theatre production I was in!
Katherine has always been and will always continue to be a dream role and something I cherish! 💙 (Also these photos are not mine! One of our audience members who had a family member in the show took them for us!)

You’re tap dancing. Cruchie was beaten up, arrested, and sent to a Juvenile house where he was beaten up even worse, to the point where he can’t even make it to the window next to the bed he shares with at least 2 other people and you’re tap dancing

You are all so lucky I didn’t have tumblr when I was in my newsies phase a few years ago I would’ve been so obnoxious. Specifically 92sies - I tried Broadway but got mad that it was so intrinsically different from the movie I couldn’t finish it (this was years ago, I’m sorry Broadway fans but the movie will always hold my heart… I might give west end a shot as it looks closer to the movie idk). They can have all the fans but they’ll never have blood drips 😔
Rip Boots, also Rip Specs and spots personality and all the other newsies because 60% got a name change for no reason.
