Brooklyn Kelly, Jack Kelly's little sister, is a performer at Medda's theater. She is dating Ezra Landon, a fellow performer, and has been for about a year. She believes that things are steady between them, and even thinks they will be married within the next few years, until she discovers her boyfriends terrible secret. Filled with grief and sadness, she stops performing for a while, wanting desperately to get away from Ezra. Instead, she busies herself helping her brother and friends prepare for the newsies strike. And that's when she meets the life-changing Spot Conlon. At first, she fears falling in love with him, not wanting to go through the same thing with him that she did with Ezra. But she soon realizes that not every boy is like that, and begins to fall in love with the boy with red suspenders.
