Played by the amazing Jeremy Jordan. Not the 80's pop singer/model. Also not the gay porn star. The other one.
Jack Kelly is extremely loyal to his boys and would do anything to keep them safe. He is the leader of the Manhattan Newsies and is low-key scared of Spot Conlon, but doesn't show it because he needs to be the protective dad once Spot finally gets the balls to ask Race out.
Jack Kelly is also a total flirt, but once he meets Katherine Pul-- I mean Plumber-- he's totally whipped. Just listen to I Never Planned On You/Don't Come A-knockin'. They met only once before that song and Katherine already had him tied around her finger.
His most popular line is probably "Dszahdh-". He's also 17, but he's the father of like 100 kids and Davey's the mom.
Person A: "I never planned on someone like you."
Person B: "Okay, Jack Kelly."
Ben Fankhauser is also known as Benonce because he is a riffing queen
He is most famously known for his role in the Broadway adaptation of Newsies. He played the amazing David (Davey) Jacobs and can sing like a freaking angel. There is a video of him singing the lines "Go and look it up the poor GUY'S head is spinning!" 8,000 times on YouTube, so that just further proves my point. (It's a loop, he doesn't sing it 8,000 times in a row. I know people who were confused by that)
Person A: "Hey, there's this guy on Broadway who can riff like crazy. His name is Ben Fankhauser, ever heard of him?"
Person B: "Oh, you mean Benonce?"
