About

They delivered the papers, until they made the headlines…Direct from Broadway comes NEWSIES, the smash-hit, crowd-pleasing new musical from Disney. 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, it's a high-energy explosion of song and dance you just don't want to miss.

Based on true events, NEWSIES tells the captivating story of a band of underdogs who become unlikely heroes when they stand up to the most powerful men in New York. It's a rousing tale about fighting for what's right…and staying true to who you are.

NEWSIES was brought to the stage by an award-winning creative team. It features a score by Alan Menken (Beauty and the Beast) and Jack Feldman (The Lion King II: Simba's Pride) and a book by Harvey Fierstein (La Cage Aux Folles), with choreography by Christopher Gattelli (South Pacific) and direction by Jeff Calhoun (Big River).

Now is the time to seize the day with NEWSIES!

    Exceptional Choreography and dancing

    by BrianCD on 8/8/16Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    The choreography and dancing was the highlight of the show. All the performances were strong and all of the technical aspects worked very well together. It was difficult to find flaw with this show unless you look at the details of every minutia.

    Energetic Male Dancers

    by pat123456 on 8/7/16Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    The large male chorus carried the show. Young boys in the audience seemed intrigued. Interesting the young girls were not as enthused. The history of the story was very well presented.

    Fun and inspirational

    by PamChicago on 8/7/16Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    A wonderful Disney presentation of a real event in our history. Dancing is phenomenal. Only cynics would not enjoy the story and even they would enjoy the songs and dancing.

    AMAZING

    by Tri16 on 8/6/16Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    Having worked in audio/ visual production for the past 7 years, I have to say this show was amazing to watch. The way they used the "fire escape" set pieces in EVERY scene was very cool and flawlessly done. The boys themselves are very, very talented. Vocals, jumps, flips; flawless. Would go see this production again in a heartbeat.
