No one works harder than Jeremy Jordan running away from those dance numbers 🏃🏻‍♂️

[@bryantlund6219]

This is so funny 😂

[@girlpaul]

This made me laugh so loud! lmao

[@Hc-in8gp]

In this performance, he actually dances in the pape sequence at the very behind which surprised me XD

[@DisabledAtDisney]

I’ve never noticed before, that’s going to bug me now!

[@stacieee3905]

LMAO no really!

And this why the musical won for best choreography that year!! Freaking amazing

[@melissacrannings8961]

totally deserved!!

[@bonka2632]

@Naomi Edward lmao explain

[@crashvds777]

This performance was immediately after they found out they won, which is so wholesome and I love it

[@maggieoconnor413]

Alex Wong was also in it

[@agarvin1687]

I was lucky enough to see the show 3 rows away from the stage at the Friday performance immediately following the Tony Awards that year. I went with my older sister who grew up loving the movie (and who had introduced it to me when I was growing up) and we had an absolute blast esp. seeing all the guys dancing up close - the Seize the Day number that night was unbelievable! Being so close meant I got one of the newspapers they threw here and, by the end of the number, the applause was insane and lasted for probably over a minute but felt like an eternity! Everyone in that cast was so freaking good and I still have fond memories despite it being close to 10 years since having seen it! :D

[@chiaghamelu]

They took this off Netflix and I’m so mad about it

[@abbotte04]

Chiamaka Aghamelu Me too. I went to go watch it and it was just gone. It’s the worst.

[@rebeccachia]

they did?? It's still on in my region.

[@danimarket3402]

I raved about it to friend and then it was gone. It's fina!s week and I have no newsies

[@Krisperela]

It will be back on Disney+ 😁😁

[@Krisperela]

Emily Abbott it will be back on Disney+ 😁😁

[@phunzi]

This number alone makes Newsies the hardest musical to put on. This number: -Requires a lot of actors -Actors are all men of a specific age group -All actors need to be able to sing -All actors need to be able to dance -Dance number includes ballet -Dance number includes mild stunts -Due to costuming, you can’t pad out the numbers with girls, it’s too noticeable I wouldn’t be surprised if they auditioned the entire state of New York and then some to be able to fill out this cast. EDIT: scratch that I forgot that Starlight Express was a thing

[@ellabellabingbong08]

i was a girl in newsies !!!

[@tinystarsandsunflowers]

i am a girl! got cast in the adv dance corps for my production (:

[@DiaHendricks]

Girls can be newsies! Historically, there were a lot of female newsies!

[@saeeshapimplikar1547]

I can't fathom what it would have been like to see this live at the Tonys. Amazing.

[@songstressx871]

God, you'd have to be so so so immensely talented to be in this ensemble.

[@MariahRB789]

I’ve seen a lot of shows on Broadway. This scene, by far, is my favorite. Seeing this live...the talent, the dancing...and the crowd went wild. So good! I could see this show over and over again, just for this scene.... not to say the entire show wasn’t top notch because it was.

[@tessharper8892]

you guys don’t get that they have a lot of shoes in the tonys so the music is usually sped up for the awards so they can fit everyone in

[@hufflepuff1232]

Who else just loves this musical and cast??

[@dannysimion]

Yes - Im digging Jeremy Jordan's stage presence and what a set of pipes to go alongside his great castmates with choreography. 2012 was a great year for Broadway. Its 2023 and im currently in a random broadway musical phase and Jeremy Jordan's Santa Fe - one of my favorites!!

[@tassianeramosramos8061]

There should be an award for "most athletic choreography that ever was"

[@RashaundaSpears]

This had to be one of the most hardest dance numbers in musical history, but holy shit is it epic when it's pulled off right.

[@dudley5533]

That's the definition of "being fit".......these guys are loaded with talent and unbelievable energy.

[@mynameisfine]

So glad Christopher Gattelli won best choreography for Newsies, he deserved it so much

[@maisiejensseneventing4297]

Broadway just dance is all fun and games till you try newsies

Finally NEWSIES will be performed in Japan in this November!!! can't wait!!!💎

[@F_0rest]

Eyo I hope you got to see it and enjoyed!

[@ミオクさん]

How was itt

[@JTonson]

This is amazing, but, believe it or not, the London production is even more amazing. It has been restaged and re-choreographed for a new theatre which is not in-the-round but almost. It is an immersive experience for the audience, and, in nearly 60 years of going to musicals, I've never experienced anything like the thrill of 'Seize the Day'.

[@fruityfishboy8414]

I find it funny how when it comes to dance numbers Jeremy Jordan gets stank for a little bit and sprints off for a bit

[@emily-wb1og]

i hate the fact that Alex Wong isn’t in the filmed version on Disney +

[@josephpolizzi_5759]

Why though ? He’s a good dancer but when it comes to being apart of the show he was the first of the OBC leave the show

[@RavenclawFtW3295]

For my final concert in High School, we got to sing a medley from Newsies. We in the senior class then took a trip to New York where one of the things we did was watch Newsies on stage.

[@IdealX-fr4eg]

I saw this live twice! Once my wife and I then we got tickets for everyone on Christmas and went again. Still my favorite musical ever

[@carys7793]

Obviously the dancing the HELLA BADASS AND IMPRESSIVE..BUT the fact that they can sing perfectly WHILE DOING IT?!?! AHHHHH IM DEAD

The stage presence of Andrew Keenan Bolger is terrific - a great song and dance number by all

[@crashvds777]

My new hobby is watching all the places the Newsies performed “seize the day” and watch them work through progressively smaller spaces. (As a person who condensed a performance with weapons from a gym floor size to a stage- I feel the pain)
