im so excited about being specs its like perfect for me because he really doesnt have that many lines (possibly the fewest of the named newsies?? but im not actually sure lmao) but i still get a COUPLE of lines including some tiny little singing solo lines. so its not overwhelming for me but i still feel like im Playing A Character

#before i got the script i was like i have no idea what lines are specs'#like i know everybody's little one liners but idk who is who #and its funny i always THOUGHT of him as a bigger role but he actually has a lot less lines #compared to newsies who i would never have matched to their lines bc i always forget their names #and i THINK this is for a few reasons #number one he is mentioned by name a lot compared to some of the others #(like. tommy boy. jojo. buttons. they dont get mentioned by name in the show i forget they even exist. but they have lines)#(whereas w specs you get jack calling for him at the beginning. also 'specs showed me' when katherine finds the rooftop)#(and as of the tour hes the one who brings jack crutchies letter)#number TWO hes visually distinct bc of well. the glasses. as opposed to just recognizing him by clothes #and THREE i think this adds onto that bc thats WHY you recognize him when he dances #but like he is usually a guy who does big noticeable tricks. ryan steele with his turns. jordan samuels w his EVERYTHING #r.txt #anyway i get some really fun lines!! i hope its real bloody with a nice clear picture!!!#also and i lost my shoe!!!#which im really nervous about lmaooo more than some of the sung lines. bc my voice is always too high when i try to yell it idk #also my voice cracked on 'hey look its bathtime at the zoo' when we did carrying the banner last night #for the same reason. i dont know what to do with my voice for the talk singing and i went too high
