What is your favorite Disney’s NEWSIES quote, song or scene — and why? My favorite scene is King of New York because it’s such a fun scene all around.

Do you have a favorite story from your time spent in theatre? This year I told Bledsoe that Josa and I came up with a great idea. The newcomers could be called NEWSIE NEWBIES!
