In our new series, 'Where Are They Now?' we're taking a look back at some of our favorite original Broadway casts, and catching up with their careers! Next up, the original cast of Newsies!

Un 29 de marzo de 2012, NEWSIES subía el telón por primera vez en Broadway. El musical con la música de Alan Menken, basado en la película homónima dirigida por Kenny Ortega, contaba con el libreto de Harvey Fierstein.

On this day in 2012, Newsies seized the day on opening night at the Nederlander Theater!

In this time of social distancing and remaining responsibly indoors, we are all looking for ways to brighten our days and get moving any way we can!

It's time to seize the day because we're celebrating the birthday of Broadway's original Crutchie from Newsies, Andrew Keenan-Bolger! In honor of the occasion, we're throwing it back to the hit show's opening night with Andrew alongside his co-stars Jeremy Jordan, Ben Fankhauser, Kara Lindsay, and more! Check out all the footage below to watch what happens!

Monotony! is the only show that dares let your favorite comedians and storytellers go deep on their weird obsessions with seemingly boring things. Their passion and (lets face it) disturbing breadth of knowledge on topics like The Science of Urinal Cakes and The History of the Rubber Duck will leave you laughing -- and possibly leaving with a brand new obsession of your own.

'A Simple Song for A Simple Wish' was a one night only benefit featuring Broadway kids singing to raise funds for One Simple Wish www.onesimplewish.org. The show was held on Monday November 16 at 7pm at the Laurie BeechmanTheatre, 407 W. 42nd Street, NYC. Check out photos below!
