Kara Lindsay was surprised by some of her former Newsies co-stars for an impromptu reunion in Disney World. During her Disney on Broadway concert with Rodney Ingram in Epcot, some former Newsies popped up out of the audience for a performance of "King of New York."

At the end of the concert, Ingram pulled Lindsay over to ask her if she had heard the rumors about some of Broadway's Newsies dancing around the park earlier. As Lindsay began to get excited, Tommy Bracco jumped up from the audience to confirm that the rumors were true. He was then joined by several other Newsies, including Jacob Guzman and Aaron Albano, who began to perform "King of New York" with Lindsay.
