There are leg grab tilts and tilts. Mitchell shows us his "no leg grab" tilt on his Instagram page:

I believe we're getting way off the Newsies topic :shock:

While this is a bit of a detour from Newsies, there is educational value in it and I appreciate the responses that fill in some glaring holes in my dance terminology.

From the tutorial video that Ellen linked, pretty sure Hogan does a Side Leg Grab. He stays standing straight and best that I recall, lifts his leg without stepping forward. Perhaps we'll task whomever on this forum attends Newsies next to verify that info. ;)

Also, I have to credit a surprise source (British too!) for my knowledge of the Terpsichorean Muse. None other than Monty Python in The Cheese Shop sketch! :lol:

Newsies will close on Broadway August 24, just in time for the national tour to begin this fall.

Finally got to see Newsies, just in the nick of time. I think many of you have seen it and have raved about it. I loved it. The sets were spectacular. They won't be able to take them on the road. The music is wonderful. I can't get the songs out of my head. There are no words for the dazzling choreography and amazing high energy dancing. WOW ,WOW, and Oh Yeh WOW

If you have not seen it ,watch out for the tour it may come to a city near you. DON'T MISS IT.

I saw Newsies in March when I did a theatre week in NYC and it was a great show. I really enjoyed it and the dancing was great. And I've absolutely fallen in love with the cast recording! Now that you've seen the show, I strongly recommend picking up the CD.

I have the CD it's great. I also got a copy of the original movie (I did not know about it) from 20 years ago with Christian Bale and Robert Duvall from amazon for $6

I got the Movie soundtrack for $3 and I like it more than the Broadway cast recording.
