Act One Finale: "Santa Fe" from Newsies The Musical, by Alan Menken and Jack Feldman

Our passionate lead character Jack Kelly of the Disney On Broadway musical Newsies has a dream of escaping the streets selling "papes" and running off to Santa Fe. It's a place he's never been but it's a dreamland to him and a change of scenery.

So many talented theater stars seized the day performing this outstanding anthem. We're highlighting 10 of our favorites!

Jeremy Jordan

Ok. We know the song is going to be dazzling but Jeremy's banter before the song makes the performance even more special! Then that effortless last "Santa Fe!"

Corey Cott

Corey is such a rock star singing this tune at Elsie Fest back in 2016. We are absolutely living for 1:20 - 1:38. Then there's that final note... I mean. ::heart eyes::

Dan DeLuca

We've made no secret that we think Dan DeLuca is fabulous. His Jack Kelly is so hopeful and endearing. He's got this Broadway pop voice that's magic on this song.

Adam Kaplan

A Bronx Tale alum Adam Kaplan also performed in the show on Broadway covering the role of Jack Kelly. His smooth tenor sounds awesome on the tune.

Salome Smith

Let's hear it for Salome! Salome who played Crystal, one of the original Urchins, in the recent Off-Broadway revival of Little Shop of Horrors gave a glorious performance of this Newsies tune. That powerful ending!

Antonio Cipriano

Jagged Little Pill's Cipriano performs a thoughtful and passionate rendition of the Newsies anthem. 2:24 to the end is so good!

Andrew Barth Feldman

How soon is too soon for a revival? Andrew most recently of Dear Evan Hansen not only gives a masterful performance of the song but he's accompanying himself on the piano. The riffs at the end? Beyond.

Casey Likes

Casey is a Jimmy Award finalist from 2019 and his performance is so great! We really love his acting choices 1:31 to the end.

Jay Armstrong Johnson

We wish this was the whole song but man oh man does Jay sound great on this! His "save my place, I'll be there!"

Josh Strickland

The wonderful Tarzan star delivers a stirring rendition of this song IN Walt Disney World! We love his honest storytelling throughout.
