| Musical Stars is putting on a production of 'Newsies' at the Little theatre in Lower Hutt (https://dowse.org.nz/venue-hire/little-theatre) It runs from the 28th August to the 31 of August. You can book tickets here: https://www.trybooking.com/nz/events/landing/11715 About: Disney's Newsies JR. is a 60-minute version of the 2012 Broadway musical, based on the 1992 film. Inspired by the rousing true story of newsboys in turn-of-the-century New York City, Newsies JR. features a Tony Award-winning score by Alan Menken and Jack Feldman and a book by Tony Award winner Harvey Fierstein. When powerful newspaper publishers raise prices at the newsboys' expense, the charismatic Jack Kelly rallies newsies from across the city to strike against the unfair conditions. Together, the newsies learn that they are stronger united and create a movement to fight for what's right. Music by Alan Menken Lyrics by Jack Feldman Book by Harvey Fierstein JR. Script Adaptation by David Simpatico Based on the Disney film written by Bob Tzudiker and Noni White. |
