- I edited this video to explain the Newsies references Mike Faist and Adam Kaplan made while being musical theatre kids arguing.
TO ALL THE DEAR EVAN HANSEN FANS: I GOT YOU
I also fixed the white balance so you're welcome. (I literally just turned the red down and added contrast to the curve)
The lyrics were rewritten by Benjamin Rauhala:

Wow wow wow. I am so honored by the existence of this! 😂😂🥰
I got this notification and literally almost screamed. Thank you so much for watching this, holy shit.
@@falsevillage I’m stupid but who is this person?
@@Apollo_kid13 he's the guy who's playing piano in the video and wrote the lyrics! He's also really involved with broadway cabarets. He also was just involved with writing the 2022 Tony Awards opening song!
Ahh, didn't realize this was you Benjamin! Not that I'm surprised, it's fantastic!
im sorry but the “ THEY ARE NEWSIES. THEY SELL PAPERS” was so funny to me
i think i got 80% of the references the first time i watched it, but seeing all the annotations needed made me realize that theater kids really do speak a different language altogether
I’m so happy I’m not the only one still in the musical fandom
Same
i think i just got in it because of West Side Story and Mike Faist, but i have almost no access to any musical production in theaters :(
i wish i could see every theater production with Mike Faist is in.
@@poppyseed3250 sammeeee, we’ll, I got into musical theater in mid 2021 because of Dear Evan Hansen, and I’m definitely really late lol
@@poppyseed3250 same.
same!
you know this is old cuz Mike still had a twitter account lol
As a note, "how many did you get? "42" is a reference to a hitchhikers guide to the galaxy. According to that book, the answer to life, the universe, and everything is 42 and I'm pretty sure that is what they are referencing. It is the kind of thing that book nerds and theater nerds (like me) will get.
0:59 Wow so many Newsies were going to be in (or were in) Tuck
After watching the original soooooo many times, I know all the references, but watching this with the explanations added a whole new level of funniness XD
Thanks for posting this!
I need this for every musical themed videos hahahahaha
So good to feel included and informed
BRO THE WAY MIKE SAYS YOU ON THE "NO I CAN SELL ANY PAPE QUICKER THAN YOU" IS AHHH
I needed this annotation, this was brilliant
Putting a hat on to take it off is the best thing
Wow this is so much funnier when I know what's going
No but I really wanna see Mike Faist in Tuck now :(
Sameeee
I may be wrong, but I think the fansie 'Elizabeth' that Adam refers to at 4:10 is a reference to the penname under which the cast wrote fan letters to Tommy Bracco.
She's real! She deleted her twitter account a while ago but her username was literally what Adam said - fansielizabeth - she's currently a regular youtuber of a small channel!
@@falsevillage Huh that's pretty cool, thanks for sharing!
im still watching this, its in my daily routine.
I love that they put on the hat at the end just to take it off😂
Ok but the Ryan Steele part is my favorite I saw this before I saw the original (it was on my recommend) and I actually understand like every joke so ya pretty proud of myself lol
So clearly I just got into the musical theater world because of Mike Faist in WSS (I never delved deep into it when Hamilton came out), wc is how I ended up in a blackhole of Mike Faist videos.
That cheekyass confidence in his Yes I can at 3:20 is pretty much how I want to live my life now
WSS WAS AMAZING! HE DID FANTASTIC!
Lol the only reason I found out that there was a new WSS was because my friend told me that Mike Faist and Ben Cook were in it and I “fell in love” with Mike Faist (I didn’t actually fall in love with Mike Faist but I fell in love with him non romantically and I can’t believe that his fandom has gotten so big that I have to disclose that, anyways) when Mike Faist was in Dear Evan Hansen and I had already fallen in love with Newsies but after I found out that Mike Faist was in it I fell in with it all over again and in a new way
Love Newsies so much
Why am I only seeing this now
Thank you so much, I loved it

This is the best thing I've ever seen
Thank u soooo mucchhhhhh
thank you for this I under stood it but still
God, I love theater.
This is so funny😭
2:00 Do you mean the guy jumping on the poster of Newsies?
Nope, that's Kyle Coffman on the poster (his face was morphed to look like Jeremy Jordan , which was the best thing).
There's a newspaper prop in newsies used in "king of new york" (it's the one that Katherine brings in and the newsies freak out over), which has a black and white picture of the original broadway cast on it. Mike's in the photo as he's an original broadway cast member and Adam isn't.
❤❤
Is there a version of this that can be watched without the cuts?
4:32 is that for Connor?
I never really liked theater and now I KNOW I'd never like it. The niche references that make your hipster friend who only listens to obscure hard-core bands look reasonable, the blurring of the boundary line which feeds into parasocial relationships. Not for me
I totally get where you're coming from. I'm always a little insecure about my musical theatre knowledge- because everyone in the community has seen or listened to all the damn shows. It's definitely wrong to be afraid that other people in your community might out you as an imposter because you haven't seen something obscure (which is a thought I have bi-monthly).
But in the context of this video, it's mostly different. Firstly, they only reference newsies the musical. Secondly, they are just playing to their castmates and their fans.
Most of the references are inside jokes about newsies - not even musical theatre references.
This particular cabaret was also just for fans to see them in person (I can promise you that anyone outside of that bubble will not understand these jokes - not because of gatekeeping but it’s just them interacting with the crowd), and this is the only performance from that cabaret that do the whole referencing thing - the other performances are actual performances.
But I completely understand what you’re saying, gatekeeping and accessibility is a huge problem in theatre and stuff.
I'm kinda confused,
is it when people like really niche things that bother you or is it people referencing things that you don't understand that bothers you?
It's like if you were complaining about passing a convention for something you're not interested in or watching a film / music award show where you haven't seen any of the films or listened to any of the music. This performance is like a comic con panel except instead of a Q&A they're singing. It isn't made for everyone - just for the people interested in this piece of theater- because people have different tastes??? In art they consume??
