Get ready for a rousing and inspiring musical experience the whole family will love! Cheney Hall proudly presents Disney's Newsies JR., brought to life by the incredibly talented young performers of our LTM's Rising Stars program. This 60-minute version of the beloved Broadway musical is perfect for theatergoers of all ages, making it an ideal outing for families.
Inspired by the powerful true story of the 1899 Newsboy Strike in New York City, Newsies JR. Features a Tony Award-winning score by Alan Menken and Jack Feldman, with a book by Tony Award winner Harvey Fierstein. Join charismatic leader Jack Kelly and the courageous newsies as they rally against unfair conditions, discovering that together, they are stronger and can fight for what is right.
This timeless story is filled with spirit and heart, including now-classic songs such as "Carrying the Banner," "Seize the Day," and "Santa Fe." Newsies JR. is a perfect show for audiences of all ages, celebrating the power of unity and standing up for what you believe in.
Don't miss your chance to be a part of the movement and witness these talented young "newsies" bring this revolutionary story to life on the Cheney Hall stage!
