The kid who plays Race (guy with a cigar) is seriously good. His acting and everything is just as good as the guys in the Broadway production! And I’m even more impressed this is a high school production!!

imagine having that many guys in the drama department. couldn't be my tiny school.

their mics be like "i can hear you *but i won't* "

I have to admit, that was way better than I thought it would be. Those are some very talented young men and women.

There is so much talent in this group! If it weren't for the few mic issues, I could believe this was a professional production.

the guy that plays race is talented as fuck, the guy that played crutchie is the human embodiment of sunshine and the kid playing les is adorable. sucks that the mics are wacky from time to time. this is incredible for a highschool production especially for a show with such advanced choreography. the acting is spot on and the vocals are wonderful. hats of to yous cuz this is amazing.

damn the guy who played as racetrack really killed it, he's a scene stealer with every line he says lol

i'm think i'm just automatically in love with anyone who plays race

The mics sound a bit off, but this by FAR the best school production I’ve seen. Why? Because they actually did some half decent choreo in there and there isn’t 100 newsies on stage at once. I normally say schools shouldn’t do newsies but this shows schools can actually pull it off with a bit of tweaking and talented kids! Awesome job 👍🏻 also the Jack and Race in the are especially good

Ok, I´ve seen the Original Broadway Show with Jeremy Jordan for.. I think more than 50 Times on Disney+, and I thoght "Ok, just another Highschool Workshop". But I´m blown away how close they came to the Original. All i can say is WOW!!!

This is by far the greatest show of Newsies, (other than Broadway) I've EVER seen, they deserve, like, frickin AWARDS that was AMAZING

I think I have a habit of becoming obsessed with anyone who plays Race..

Also the production value is amazing? The set is gorgeous, the costumes are top notch. Like omg it’s beautiful

YESSS JACK TOOK HIS HAT OFF DURING SANTA FE 👏 everyone did SO well though, davey's and ajck's voice were so good

I REFUSE to believe this is an actual high school production??!!! Like I know drama clubs are very common in the US but like.... I'm from Europe and my school didn't even have one, and if it did its productions would've been SHIT. How TF do u do it over there in the states???? I'm in AWE.

Whoever played Jack did an awesome job! Great performance 👏🏻

I honestly cant believe that this is a high school production...

Ms Medda is amazinggg she did so well!!!

Great performance. The young man who plays Jack was a very good actor and singer. And all the other cast members do an amazing job, too. This Katherine has a really beautiful voice. Thanks for sharing this!

omg!!! this is incredible, and for HIGH SCHOOL!!

race’s voice sounds exactly like the one in the broadway show. literally this is SO good

imagine having this set jesus

Comments are all Jack and Race, and well deserved, but Crutchy had me at the first song. Great acting and singing.

Great job to the cast of Disney Newsies the muiscal, I am so proud of you keep up the great work From Ella Larson!

This is the best production of Newsies that isn't Broadway! great acting, great sets, and the cast is mostly men compared to some other productions where it's only a couple guys

Jacks actor is like such a good singer?

I love how much emotion Jack has!

Can't believe this is a high school! Incredibly talented kids!

YES! That's how you do a high school musical! I did newsies in theater once and they nailed this!

I love Broadway shows this is my kind of time. The time to choreograph all this youngsters they play well. I will watch it myself.

I am so proud of all you young people. You deserve every single clap of the audience! Great Job!

Totally awesome performance by all. Loved the New York accent! You kids rock!!!!

WOW! This was amazing! Everyone did a great job and the songs were so well sung.

Not sure why this popped up but I love it and I love ❤️ Newsies

Suddenly I'm discovering a spate of productions of "Newsies" ─ and this one is superb (with several others being brilliant also, but while I think overall this is among the best I've discovered it doesn't quite make number one). Not that it should be viewed as a competition; each good production is something of which the respective school should be proud. A couple of the productions disqualify themselves in my view by using a prerecorded professional orchestral accompaniment, but here we see the orchestra at the beginning of each act. It does however sound professional with my only issue being the piano which over-dominates many of the vocals. There are one or two other audio issues. Apart from far too many late mic cues leaving lines un- or inadequately heard, at around 8:35 min there seems to be an edit, using parts of two performances, with audio from both seeming to overlap for about 30 sec; and for the big tap routine the stage floor should have been miked to clearly pick up the tapping - these matters are a bit clumsy considering the high standard overall. These issues aside, the performances are remarkable both individually and in ensemble with great chorus work. The dancing needs special mention as the very demanding choreography is handled at so close to professional standard, it just has room to be a little tighter in ensemble work where movement is not quite perfectly in unison. Then there's the sets and lighting ...., need I go on? Congratulations all round.

we did this at my school, and it didn't even compare to this one. fantastic job.

This is an amazing production, especially for a high school.

The set is just perfect

At this point I watch a production of newsies if race has a good performance and if crutchie and jack show any sign of what looks like true chemistry and friendship. Besides the original Broadway production this is tied for first with one other version I've seen. I also love the energy that the actors show, they really take on their character and I love it.

Some real talent there. Congrats on a great HS production!

OMG THEY DID THIS PERFECT THE MOST PERFECT ON KZfaq RIGHT SETS AND COSTUMES AND AMAZING CASTING BRAVA

This was so good! Kudos to Jack, Race, and Crutchy in particular. Bravo! 👏👏👏

I wish this many guys from my school would audition

Can I have the glue that they are wearing on those hats?

thank you for uploading this.

I'm in love with crutchies song! 😍😍😍😍

I love Katherine in this, and Davy's baby face (works bc Les is so tiny.) Racetrack is EPIC!! Why are there 500 nuns, lol?

BRUH THIS IS SO GOOD

I remember that my class and I went to a play about this at the Fairfield high school next to my school and it was awesome!!

Tbh I would date any of these guys. If only I went to this high school.

Hold on, are we all going to ignore that Race and Jack held hands at 13:06 ??! PLEASE TELL ME I WASN'T THE ONLY ONE WHO SAW THATTTTTT

Who ever played les is so cute ! I love this I will share this with all my friends

Wow, an awesome play!

This was amazing-

my school is doing newsies in may and im auditionig. personally i think all the songs are really good, so i cant wait to see how it goes

At some points the jack sounded like Jeremy

The guy playing Jack Kelley reminds me of Jason Dean from Heathers lol

BRO. I THE BOTTOM LINE IS SO GOOD

can we talk about 10:45 HOW THEY NAILED THE LEAPSIES JUMP UHM WHAAT

amazing!

The bottom line performance was incredible

Now who made all of the boys put blush on 😂😂😂😂😂

*How much money* this school must have. Their set is like 98% recreated from the Broadway show.

so good tho impressed ngl

they really yelled in lower case at 38:29 lol

1:02:56 THAT LITTLE CHILD THERE IS ADORABLE

Menna Larsen is FANTASTIC!!

Amazing! I hope my production will be something like yours. We'll see

the jack sounds EXACTLY like jeremy jordan

Who played Mr pullzier he was really awesome to me and so was the guy that played Davey too.

someone please let me know what shoes they're wearing

Amazing! Thank you all

They changed king of New York way too much😭 race is my favorite “The woild is yer erster!” That’s my favorite line in the whole musical..❤

It’s watch what happens reprise for me jack sounds so British

This made my terrible life almost good!

I never called a bad woman to a play house.

I have decided im in love with race....I need to know who played him

Really wish they had mics for the tap shoes

No way it looks like broadway

I was in 8th when I go see thing and it was my last thing I saw before I move

Good job, great clarinet covered up by a poorly mic'd piano that was to loud

i have have katherine many newsies production and katherine in this one was standing too still in this one but besides tha it was a decent newsies production

my school has 2000 students yet like 8 guys in the theatre department and only 4 r good

You can tell this isn’t accurate because Spot Conlon is a giant

I really just found Race and jacks instas....and jacks tiktok

the production is amazing but are the drums a bit off or is it just me?

I'll marry Race right here right now send his @

9:43

Still waiting on the wasteful school's apology for working with people like Lou Ann Reed and Loretta Cordell.

I think this is pretty good....but the first minute or so is a bit rushed,like the lines and actions are just very fast, but other than that its pretty good...

1:30:54

Outrageous production quality for a high school....what are property taxes there lol???

39:44 Jack looks demonic.

1:25:52 ╮(. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)╭

Am I the only one who thinks that they all have make up on?

Ouch. These talented kids deserved better support. Audio probs and the make up on the boys is totally OTT. Not needed since gas footlights. The lighting is great. Good vocals, and nice to see that every character is played by kids as opposed to dragging in oldies from the science department or wherever. Miss Medda looks like Mae West on Valium. No one really has a handle on the dialogue. The humour disappears when people just 'say their lines'. That is the director's responsibility not the actors. Too many lines just thrown away. To reiterate, the director's responsibility. Acting is about listening. No one is listening. Watch What Happens was humorless. I know I am being super critical. Sorry. The audience on the night obviously had a great time with it as they should have. I just object to the paint by numbers direction both stage and musical. This was supposed to be a learning curve for these kids. Seems to me that they were flying by the seat of their talented pants without enough guidance. Well done, kids.

Was there a audience!!! if so shame on them....

Jack is a good singer but acting needs some work

Whoever is the choreographer should not get a lot of credit they copied so much choreo from the broad way
