“You can sing, you can dance, and you won’t soil your pants.” - David Hyde Pierce, Spamalot
Hey guys! I’m going to NYC in mid-May, and I thought I’d take to the Tumblr streets and ask advice about getting tickets to Newsies!
1. Is there a “Best Day” to go see it, like, when they’re least tired or something?
2. Is there a discount code for Ticketmaster, or a place for cheaper tickets? Like, when I was seeing We Will Rock You in London regularly, we all shared a code given to fans via the fanclub for really cheap tickets. I thought it’d be worth asking.
3. Between May 12th & May 17th, are any of you cool people seeing it?
The cast of NEWSIES travel cross country from New York City to California to perform on ‘Dancing with the Stars’!
Brooklyn’s Here - Newsies OBCR Lyrics
Hi! I found that I couldn’t find any of the correct lyrics of the OBCR of Newsies anywhere on the Internet, so I bought the album on iTunes and am currently typing out the lyrics of the songs:

lol, this is adorable. I think it’s really sweet of her to do this, and the prizes are pretty sweet, right? :D (but lol, you have your Script in a frame! How do you read it?? I reference mine far too often to encase it in anything, lol.)
Biggest on stage flub and how you handled it:
Yikes; this one still hurts. My biggest flub was the night I made my Broadway debut in The Book of Mormon. It was the big Broadway number and I was front and center. I turned to reveal my hat and *Boom!* it falls to the ground! The entire company was on stage for this number dancing in tight formations while I was scrambling to pick up my hat! Eventually, I got it up and continued to kick-ball-change through the end. The company was awesome about it and several people told me dropping the hat was a rite of passage. In spite of the flub, I still had the time of my life!

I wonder what happened that made this so last minute!
BoM 8/25/12 eve
Not a full review, but some highlights.Cast subs: Tyson Jennette as Mafala; Brian Sears as McKinley; Nick Spangler as Elder Grant/Church.
Aw man, thanks for writing this up!! I can totally see Brian’s McKinley being really good and everything, but part of me thinks it’s just TOO sad and unredeemable (as in the mindset sounds too ingrained for him to so easily be swayed into staying and allowing it to get better). At least too sad for me to enjoy/laugh at it. How did he play the part at the end?
