11: The Bottom Line (Reprise)
i was in this one! barely! this is such a good villain song and it gave me chills every time. i was barely in it but i love that they mention jack’s newsies name in this one
10: Finale
made me sad that the show was ending and also i took the girl harmony on this one which is so random and hard lol.
9: Something to Believe In
had a rough time with the harmonies in this one and also the first couple times we ran the scene before it i completely forgot my lines after the kiss because i was nervous LMAO so during the show i was always wicked nervous that was gonna happen again.
8: Seize the Day
okay so im a dancer first. usually jack doesn’t dance much but i did! and then i ran around the entire auditorium because snyder was chasing me. i was so tired and out of breath and also just nervous for santa fe.
7: Santa Fe (Prologue)
i was chillin during this. the guy who played crutchie was amazing and we had a good time working on this song together.
6: Don’t Come a Knockin/I Never Planned On You
unpopular opinion but i love this song. cutie banter and i love when songs overlap eachother.
5: Watch What Happens (Reprise)
these harmonies are FUN! and i love jack’s little dialogue pieces in this.
4: Carrying the Banner
classic newsies getting ready. loved this so much.
3: Santa Fe
everytime i stepped off the stage after this song the cast would run and hug me. i was so so stressed during this though which is why it isnt number one.
2: Once and For All
you ever sang that section with a group of your best friends before? you know the section. anyway yeah its about the most therapeutic musical theatre can possibly get.
1: The World Will Know
and here it is! my favorite song that i was in. the energy in this song is so incredibly high and i just always felt that the ensemble was having just as much fun as i was.
