Question

in daddy long legs why did jetusha call herself a BEAST​

Answer 1

Answer:

While relatively retaining elements from Webster's book, some details have been changed, added, or removed (e.g.: In the book, Jerash changes her name to Judy, whereas in the stage musical, she does not). The current synopsis reflects the current Off-Broadway production. Daddy Long Legs is a stage musical with a book by John Card, and music and lyrics by Paul Gordon. It is based on the 1912 novel of the same name by Jean Webster. Set in turn-of-the-century New England, the musical tells the story of orphan Jerash Abbott of the John Grier Home and her mysterious benefactor who agrees to send her to college, who she dubs "Daddy Long Legs" after seeing his elongated shadow. Under the conditions of her benefactor, Jerash sends him a letter once a month, describing her new-found experiences with life outside the orphanage.
