happy pride month to all newsies fans I ain't never met a straight one
a FRIENDLY reminder!
DAVEY is livesies/proshoot/broadway/2010s
DAVID is 92sies/movie/90s
EXACTLY
in the film he is occasionally called "Davey," however off the top of my head it is by
Crutchy (who gets a pass, and also very often uses "Dave")
Sarah (who is entitled to the name as his big sister)
and the Delanceys (mockingly)
I don't understand why the name is so overused in the newsical, but honestly it may have been so that there was no confusion between David the character and the repeated David and Goliath references
anyways, 92sies is David or Dave (or the Walking Mouth)
This part right here, where Bumlets tries to push Boots away from the incoming cops never fails to break my heart. I think I've said this before but Bumlets definitely blames himself for Boots getting arrested and thinks he should have "protected him better"
I've seen way too many historical videos using black and white pictures of the cast of newsies when talking about the newsboy strike, mistaking them for real life photos
"this is a picture of newsboys from the 1899 strike!"
I'm sorry to tell you but that's a picture of teenagers from the 1992 Disney movie ...
the concept of Esther having a miscarriage between David and Les and then she and Mayer naming their baby Leshem ("precious gem")
i hope to meet Christian Bale one day so i can see the light die in his eyes when i say āoh my god!! itās that guy from Newsies!!ā
dude honestly shout out to my guards i told them to seize this guy and before i could even finish my sentence they soze him. My goats

jack was fifteen was michael died. michael was eight. jack is seventeen when we see him. michael would have been ten. les is "ten, almost." les is the age michael would have been had he not died. idk is there something here
Yes I do want to walk down the aisle to Carrying The Banner (Finale) thanks for asking
I love The Character sooooo much! grinds my teeth together flares my nostrils flexes my fingers tenses my neck muscles snorts like a bull stands as still as an ambush predator shifting on my haunches mere metres away from The Character

So I just learned that there was a guy in the real life newsboy strike called Major Butts? I donāt know what to do with this information but I love it
Major Butts Butler! He took over as a key leader of the strike after Kid Blink stepped down following accusations that he had accepted a bribe
hard promises reread notes:
- wiesel keeps his cudgel āclose at handā when the boys are just?? trying to buy their papers?? jack calls him pussycat
- wiesel is physically abusive to morris, hitting him and knocking him to the floor
- davey: āwe were taught not to lieā jack: āi was taught not to starve to death in the gutter! who ya gonna believe?ā
- action of jack looking at the jacobsā apartment is described as āa home. to him the taj mahal. food on the stove, sheets on the bed. home. it hits him hard.ā
- mayer and sarah are raging socialists!! mayer reads from eugene debsā work
- jack says he canāt sleep in the bottom bunk (hammock) and needs the top one . horse & wagon sound trigger a nightmare of michaelās death. jack wakes in a sweat and secretly goes to look at his family photo for a while
- spot calls jack āsullivanā, implying he knew him Before
- esther hits david in the face when she learns about the strike
- jack describes michael as āthis kid, like les, but younger.ā later, when jack scabs, les hits him in the mouth and draws blood; a cop retaliates against les, whose head strikes a wagon wheel, triggering a horrifying flashback for jack of michaelās death. he throws himself on his knees, picks up les, and carries him. lesā blood covers his new clothes. he pays for the doctor.
- ājack would rather die than take his pants offā
- francis malcolm sullivan. snyder tells him heās āalready responsible for the death of his brotherā. snyder wants to put him in the refuge until he sees fit; jack begs to be sent to the adult prison instead
- when jack is taken to meet up with pulitzer the guy just grabs his face; seitz holds him still as pulitzer examines him
- when david sees jack as a scab, he hits him in the face. jack doesnāt resist. he just says āi canāt afford to be a kid no moreā
- jack (intense, aggressive) i ain't lying. i just ain't telling you the truth. i know my brother's dead. i know what's real. (walks away, stops) itās easier sometimes to make up a family then to have a one.
- jack, lying: ābeing alone donāt scare me.ā
- āthereās a grin on jackās face as he dashes for the family he will not leave behindā
