19 - Seize the Pape [a.k.a. Newsies]

  • Summary

  • Extra, Extra! We hope you were able to finish that giant turkey leg from last week, because today’s headline says that it’s time to take on our first nostalgic musical — Newsies! While Jeff feels pretty familiar with the musical genre, this one actually came from Josue’s past. And he is pretty sure we will all love it. There’s only one way to find out. But before we do, Jeff guides all of us through our first No-Look Art Studio. So grab a paper and pencil and play along. Chances are you’ll do better than Josue.
