On a school trip to NYC, Victoria, a girl from 2019, finds herself trapped in 1899, just after the newsboy strike made famous by one of her favorite musicals. Trapped in the wrong century, she casts in her lot with Jack Kelly, Crutchie, and all of her favorite newsies, resulting in adventures, antics... and several clumsy attempts at imitating stunts. This time-trapped fansie soon discovers that the dangers of the fictional past are very real, and fandom worlds collide in unexpected ways as Victoria tries to navigate her new existence...and all the challenges it entails. This story contains elements of Doctor Who and several other fandoms, but it is predominantly a Newsies story. I am using the actors from the live version on Netflix unless I otherwise specify.
