Disney's Newsies
Inspired by the real-life Newsboy Strike of 1899, the high-energy musical Newsies by Harvey Fierstein and Alan Menken tells the story of a band of runaway "newsies" who go up against Pulitzer, Hearst, and other powerful newspaper publishers to fight against social injustice, exploitative labor practices, and a corrupt establishment. Songs include "Carrying the Banner," "Watch What Happens," "King of New York," "Something to Believe In," and others.
Performances are over two weekends: April 18-19 and April 25-27 at Mathews High School's Harry M. Ward Auditorium.
