Newsies on Tour
A family-friendly hit since its Broadway debut in 2012, Disney's Newsies: The Broadway Musical returns to stages across America. Based on the big-screen Disney musical released in 1992, the stage adaptation brings fresh energy to a rousing story that takes as its starting point the real events known as the Newsboys' Strike of 1899. When New York publishing titan Joseph Pulitzer raises newspaper prices and makes life harder for the youngsters who sell his papers, it's up to a charismatic newsboy named Jack Kelly and female news reporter Katherine Plumber to rally the newsies.
Offering nonstop thrills and an inspirational message, Newsies is an engaging and enthralling stage show that's continued to delight audiences since its original Broadway run of over 1,000 performances and its first national tour in 2014. Featuring a Tony Award-winning score, acrobatic choreography, and stirring songs ("Seize the Day," "Santa Fe," "Once and For All"), the show is a favorite for kids and adults alike.
About Newsies
The winner of Tony Awards for Best Choreography and Best Original Score in 2012, Disney's Newsies: The Broadway Musical has fast become a new classic of American musical theater. With a score by Alan Menken and Jack Feldman and a book by Harvey Fierstein, the story follows the 1992 Disney original, one of the studio's most treasured movies in recent decades. Like the movie, the musical is based on real-life in turn-of-the-century New York City, when publishing giants relied on plucky youngsters called newsies to sell their papers citywide. When newspaper magnate Joseph Pulitzer raises prices and creates new challenges for the newsies, a boy named Jack Kelly must rally his friends from all over the city to set things right.
A popular new show of the 2012 Broadway season, Newsies was nominated for seven Tony Awards, winning two. Alan Menken's score and Christopher Gattelli's choreography were both honored with Drama Desk Awards. The original Broadway run lasted over 1,000 performances before Newsies found new audiences on the North American tour that began in October of 2014 and continued for 784 performances in 65 cities. Millions more saw Newsies thanks to the filmed production released by Disney in 2017 and viewable on Disney+. Made available by Disney Theatrical Licensing in 2019, the live show has become a beloved addition to repertoires for theater companies and venues nationwide.

Simply amazing! High energy show that even someone who is not a musical fan will enjoy. Outstanding singing and choreography.
The Newsies was a great play for both young and old. Awesome storyline and cast!
Best dancing. Best all-around show. Best cast. Every minute is enjoyable, and it appeals to all ages! The show is a must-see!
I took my 12 year old daughter to your show, not knowing much about it. I was mesmerized by the dancing. Better yet, the humorous slant you portrayed of the lives of poor news boy in the 1900's was marvelous. Rather than sad and depressing, the storyline was amazing and the actors were so on task. We want to go again!! We thought nothing could beat WICKED!!
Newsies was truly an excellent musical with incredible dancing, singing and acting. These performers are absolutely incredible and I give them a tremendous amount of credit for all of the long hours and hard work that go into this play. I would 10/10 recommend this musical to anyone who wants to experience a great story and hear some of the most catchy and beautiful songs on Broadway. Seize the day!!!
Great show. Great venue. Seats were perfect. Got there early easy parking I. The structure. Walked down to local restaurant near by. Awesome evening all around.
Loved this story. I didn't realize that it was loosely based on a true story! Music was great and the dancing a choreography was wonderful. The Pantages Theater is a lovely theater (just wish there were more stalls in the ladies room!). Parking is adequate and close by.
This touring cast continues to amaze and dazzle audiences all over. It's a totally entertaining show from start to finish.
I really enjoyed this show. So energetic! It didn't feel like two hours long. Definitely recommend it for kids, 10 years and up.
Sets and choreography were fabulous. These guys had to be great athletes constantly running and dancing up three flight of stairs along with dialogue. Whole family (ages 9-60) loved it
Newsies was a phenomenal experience from begging to curtain call!
I took my 8-year-old son to see Newsies because I wanted him to see that boys can dance and sing on stage. I had never seen it before, not even as a film, and it blew me away. The dancing was so masculine and powerful. The music was fantastic! I would see it again in a heartbeat, and my son was inspired. He wants to be on stage, and this show encouraged him to pursue his interests.
2nd time I've seen Newsies, and it is terrific. The effort put into providing the audience a memorable experience is amazing and appreciated. Great talent and energy. The only thing that was bothersome was when the orchestra either went off key or altered the music to "King of New York". Why they would do this was irritating and disappointing. Not the cast's fault, they gave it all they had.
This is a really fun show, lots of great dancing and high energy dance numbers. I brought my 4 year old daughter (this was her first show) and she loved it!
