About
Inspired by the rousing true story of newsboys in turn-of-the-century New York City, Newsies Jr. is a 60 minutes adaptation featuring a Tony Award-winning score! When powerful newspaper publishers raise prices at the newsboys’ expense, the charismatic Jack Kelly rallies newsies from across the city to strike against the unfair conditions. Together, the newsies learn that they are stronger united and create a movement to fight for what’s right. Including the now-classic songs “Carrying the Banner,” “Seize the Day,” and “Santa Fe,” Newsies Jr. is a timeless story full of spirit and heart. Newsies Jr. premieres on our stage April 14th, 2023.
Newsies Jr. expands options for girls and gender neutral casting! So all are welcome to audition!
