NEWSIES
Set in turn-of-the
century New York City,
Newsies
is the rousing
tale of Jack
Kelly, a charismatic newsboy and leader of a band of teenaged
"newsies." When
titans of publishing raise distribution prices at the newsboys’ expense, Jack
rallies
newsies from across the city to strike against the unfair conditions and fight
for what’s right! Based on the 1992 motion picture and inspired by a true story,
Newsies
features a Tony Award-winning
score by Alan Menken and Jack Feldman and a book by Tony Award winner Harvey
Fierstein. Featuring the now classic songs “Carrying the Banner,”
“Seize the Day,” and “Santa Fe,”
Newsies
is packed with non-stop
thrills and a timeless message, perfect for the whole family and every audience.
