They delivered the papers, until they made the headlines! The Legacy is proud to be one of only 12 theaters in the country selected to present NEWSIES, Disney's newest Broadway hit musical!
Set in New York City at the turn of the twentieth century, NEWSIES is the rousing tale of Jack Kelly, a charismatic newsboy and leader of a ragged band of young newsies who dreams only of a better life far from the hardship of the streets. But when publishing titans Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst raise distribution prices at the newsboys expense, Jack finds a cause to fight for and rallies newsies from across the city to strike for whats right. With help from the feisty young female reporter Katherine Plumber, all of New York City soon recognizes the power of the little man.
NEWSIES is inspired by the real-life Newsboy Strike of 1899, when a band of orphan and runaway children took a two-week-long action against newspaper publishers Pulitzer and Hearst.
NEWSIES is Disney's smash-hit new Broadway musical featuring music by Tony and Academy Award winner Alan Menken (Beauty and the Beast, Little Shop of Horrors, Little Mermaid, Sister Act), Lyrics by Tony Award Winner Jack Feldman (Copacabana, Oliver & Company) and a script by Tony Award Winner Harvey Fierstein (Hairspray, La Cage aux Folles, Kinky Boots).
Winner of the 2012 Tony Awards® for Best Score and Best Choreography, NEWSIES has audiences and critics alike calling it A MUSICAL WORTH SINGING ABOUT! (The New York Times) Filled with one heart-pounding number after another, its a high-energy explosion of song and dance you just Wont want to miss!
Directed by SCOTT RICHARDSON Choreography by CHAZ WOLCOTT with Ashley Blevins, Bailee Brinkman, Devin Dinora Vocal Direction by JUDY DENTON Musical Direction by EMERSON JAMES
