Nerd of New York

for the last week i implore you to turn around and look at mark before he ziplines in once and for all. he doesn’t expect anyone to look so he just sits there with his legs dangling watching the show it’s so cute

this is so upsetting to me why don’t i live in london

I can't even describe the sound I let out when he said this but I can tell you for sure this is when I definitely stopped being okay

"are you okay" bro no what the hell was "Hey Henry one final time get down here !" ???

one final time…killing myself

We’re the girls from the beaches of Brighton,

Prospect Park and the navy yard pier.

idea: crutchie telling someone “go to hell” with a big smile on his face before wacking them with his crutch

Best lesbian ship I’ve ever seen on principle alone is when the newsies fandom was like “hmmm we only have one girl in each version of this musical, but they’re different girls depending on the source, so what if they both exist, and they kiss about it” and then they called that ship NEWSBIANS! Absolute poetry

Race, after the betrayal: You know that song from High School Musical? We’re all in this together?

Race: You know nothing about that

screaming crying throwing up they actually invented polyamory did you know

Honestly, the biggest question I would have for the OBC of Newsies is how they came up with their characters' names. Cause most of the ensemble made up their own names and I just really wanna know the stories behind them.

On the one hand, you've got Mike Faist and Brendon Stimson (Morris and Oscar) who named their newsie characters Mike and Ike. And I can easily imagine how that decision was made, it's a funny joke. It makes sense.

But then there's just Corey Hummerston (I think) who named his character with approximately three lines freaking Josephino Jorgelino de la Guerra aka JoJo. He was raised by nuns in a cathedral in Harlem. Also, he's a furry. Like what? Sir? WHERE DID THIS COME FROM AND WHY????

And then there's just Tommy Bracco who named his character Tommy Boy.

Like what was going on in rehearsals? When did they start naming their characters and why and which random close-to-thirty-year-old man is just out there in the world sitting on a super elaborate backstory for his character that has about four lines and a two-measure tap solo?

sorry pause they nAMED THEIR OWN CHARACTERS?

Newsies culture is having that one part of the song where you need to stop and do one specific newsies specific choreography

Ehem ehem ( King of New York : Elmers pose during the line “I guarantee” when the camera gets that one amazing camera shot of him)
