Newsies spins the inspirational tale of Jack Kelly - a charismatic newsboy who dreams of a better life. When the unscrupulous newspaper tycoon, Joseph Pulitzer, raises prices at the newsboys' expense, Jack along with spitfire reporter, Katherine Plummer, rouse the downtrodden "newsies" to stand up against Pulitzer and fight for what's right!
We will meet in the lobby at 11:30 a.m. for seating, lunch will be served at 12 p.m and the show begins at 1 p.m. The show typically lasts around 3 hours. Please note: transportation is not provided, and participants will need to get themselves to the theatre and back. Sign up at the Welcome Center by July 1. Tickets cannot be refunded after this date.
