AUDITION LYRICS :

You can sing any song from Newsies, but we have attached easy examples below. The samples below are often in the middle of the song, so make note of the start time. These sections of the songs give us the best valuation for your voice.

Watch what happens - Role of Katherine- Start at 1:42 -Give those kids and me the brand new century and watch what happens! It’s David and Goliath or die, the fights on and I can’t watch what happens, but all I know is nothing happens if you just give in. It can’t be any worse than how it’s been, and it just so happens that we might just win..so what ever happens lets begin

Just a Pretty Face - role of Medda- Star at : 30- I’m more than just a pretty face. Don’t try to keep me in my place. You think there;’s all these big things ladies can’t do? Or is it that you’re scared we’d do em better than you? I’m gonna take my turn at bat. There’s lots of ways to skin a rat. George Washington found glory from the armies he led, but look what Betsy Ross did for a needle and thread. So don’t be fooled by the powder and lace, I’m more than just a pretty face.

Letter from the Refuge- role of Crutchie- : 40- Any way, so guess what? There’s this secret escape plan I got! Tie a sheet to the bed, toss the end out of the window, climb down, then take off like a shot! Maybe though, not tonight. I ain’t slept and my leg still ain’t right. Hey, but Pulitzer, he’s going down! And thenJack, I was thinking we might just go like you was saying, where it’s clean and green and pretty, with no buildings in your way, and you see riding palominos every day..once that train makes…

Seize The day- Role of Davey- Star at : 10- Now is the time to seize the day! Answer the call and don’t delay! Wrongs will be righted if we’re united! Let us seize the day! Houston to Harlem, Look what’s begun! One for all and all for one.

Santa Fe- role of Jack- Start at : 27 - Let me go far a way, somewhere they won’t never find me, and tomorrow won’t remind me of today. When the city’s finally sleeping and the moon looks old and gray, I get on the train that’s bound for Santa Fe. And I’m gone! And I’m done! No more running. No more lying. No more fat old men denying me my pay. Just a moons big and yellow, it turns right into day. Dreams come true, yeah they do, in Santa Fe.

Carrying The Banner- Chorus song- Start at :38- Ain’t it a fine life, carrying the banner through it all! A mighty fine life carrying the banner tough and tall. When that bell rings, we goes where we wishes. We’s as free as fishes. Sure beats washing dishes. What fine life, carrying the banner home free all.
