Step into turn-of-the-century New York City, a time of skyscrapers and money makers, with Disney’s Newsies. This year’s Grand Theatre High School Project production tells the story of charismatic Jack Kelly and his gritty band of newsies, united in the fight against greedy newspaper giants.
But when greedy publishing giants decide to raise distribution prices at the newsies’ expense, it’s up to Jack and his pals to be stronger together and fight for what’s right!
Famed for its imaginative and iconic dance sequences, this vibrant musical spectacular is based on the 1992 Disney motion picture, inspired by a true story, and features a Tony Award-winning score that includes songs such as “Carrying the Banner,” “Seize the Day,” and “King of New York.”
