I already know that the show is being workshopped; and that Harvey Fiernstien is writing the book. All I want to know is if there is any new info about the show, such as who was cast as who in the ws. I have scoured the Internet for more information but to no avail.[/list]

well the idea of the show just gives me goosebumps, partially because the movies not all that good.

One of the reasons the movie wasn't that good is because it got hacked to bits in the process. They cut the crap out of Ann-Margaret's songs, cutting over half of both of her songs. There were songs and scenes that weren't filmed. They cut a dance number late in production (though this was replaced by King of New York, which is one of my favorite songs from the movie, so I don't care that much). The songs and the story are good. The script... it could use some work.

I've been in love with this movie since I was in Jr. High. I've been waiting for a Broadway version ever since. If they ever announce this, I will be first in line to buy tickets.

I certainly hope it's way better then the movie, a few new songs and a good book might bring this to become a great disney remake, but I can't get Seize the Day out of my head.

Seize The Day is one of the best songs from the movie in my opinion. I heard that Harvey Fiernstien is writing the book for the show. I don't know what to think of that, because I have never seen any of his work. So I guess I'll just have to wait and see.


On a side note, I read the first draft of Newsies a while back, and it had some good stuff in there that was omitted. One thing was it was explained why Jack takes to Less. It's because he had a little brother who was killed by being hit by a horse and carriage. If I remember correctly Sarah also had her own song about Jack in that first draft. Would be cool to see those bits put into the show.

I think the movie is phenomenal. I can understand why people who don't like musicals wouldn't like Newsies, but I can't believe anyone on this board would call it "not at all good". It's a great story of the little guy taking on the corrupt in power. Great acting. Superb score. What's wrong with it?

I can't wait for the stage version. Been waiting for years!

Newsies is one of my all time favorite movies and I cannot wait for the musical!!!!

What I read I really liked it. Thank you for your information!

I liked that movie , after reading the discussion I am thinking why people don't like this movie. I like that movie and it is really a nice story. waiting for the next newsies show.

I cannot wait for the musical!!!!
