Disney’s Newsies is a high-energy musical based on the real-life Newsboys’ Strike of 1899. Set in New York City, the story follows Jack Kelly, a charismatic newsboy with big dreams of escaping to Santa Fe. When powerful newspaper moguls, including Joseph Pulitzer, raise the price of newspapers at the expense of the young newsies, Jack and his fellow street kids take a stand. With the help of an ambitious reporter, Katherine Plumber, they rally together to fight for fair wages and workers' rights. Featuring rousing anthems like Seize the Day and Carrying the Banner, Newsies is a story of resilience, friendship, and the power of standing up for what’s right.
