Storyline
From the beloved Disney film featuring Christian Bale, Bill Pullman and Robert Duval, Newsies is a reimagined version of the historical 1899 Newsboy Strike. It follows Jack Kelly's journey in turn-of-the-century New York City as he leads his gang of teenage 'newsies' who dream of something greater than their current lives on the street. Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst, two influential publishing moguls, take a stand that would significantly reduce the revenue of newsboys across New York City. Jack Kelly and his friends quickly recognize this as an issue worth fighting for. With determination and courage, they organize a strike to protect their livelihoods and fight for justice in their city. Book your Newsies tickets now and don't miss out on the theatrical adaptation of this cult classic.
