Ryan Farnsworth, who's gotten rave reviews, dishes about playing Jack Kelly in ''Newsies'' (thru Oct. 18 ) at Tuacahn Amphitheatre, a 2,000-seat outdoor arena in southern Utah. He reveals how he got some inside advice on landing the role, thanks to his good pal, Ben Fankhauser, the original Davey, who says, ''I knew Ryan was gonna be stellar as Jack.'' And Ryan chats about how he sold an original song to Disney; how he's related to Philo T. Farnsworth, ''the father of television,'' and why he's such a huge San Francisco Giants fan.
