Disney's Newsies, JR

Now is the time to seize the day! The Young Players Presents Disney’s Newsies, JR, co-sponsored by The Saline Courier and Roberson & Associates Insurance. Based on the 1992 motion picture, and the full-length 2012 Broadway musical, Disney’s Newsies JR. is inspired by the real-life Newsboy Strike of 1899 and features a Tony Award-winning score by Alan Menken and Jack Feldman, and a book by Tony Award winner Harvey Fierstein. With JR. Script Adaptation by David Simpatico. Based on the Disney film written by Bob Tzudiker and Noni White.
The musical follows newsboy Jack Kelly as he rallies a band of fellow "newsies" against the powerful newspaper publishers who raise prices at the newsboys' expense. Together, they learn they are stronger when they are united and they create a movement that changes history. Newsies JR. includes the classic songs "Carrying the Banner," "Seize the Day," and "Santa Fe." Directed by Daphne Shoppach, with musical direction by Veronica West, choreography by Annslee Clay, Newsies promises to be energetic and full of spirit and heart.
