About this Event
Based on the hit Broadway musical, this approximately 90-minute performance tells the inspiring story of young newspaper sellers who stand up for what’s right, discover the power of teamwork, and use their voices to make a difference. Filled with high-energy songs, lively choreography, and unforgettable characters, this family-friendly production showcases the incredible talent and dedication of Skinner West students.
We listened and understand many of you would like to get your GENERAL ADMISSION TICKETS in advance! Doors open 30 minutes prior to the show. Seating is first-come, first-served. SELECT “Reserve a Spot” here on Eventbrite to get your tickets.
Suggested donation (in advance): $10 per adult and $5 per child/teacher, supporting this year’s and next year’s musical production and Drama Club. When paying, select “Fundraiser.” In the box labeled “Name of Fundraiser,” manually type “Newsies Tickets.” Enter the total $amount for your ticket order and check-out.
If 200 people RSVP here, we may close the show to additional guests and consider adding another performance. We want everyone to have the chance to comfortably see your amazing kids! For non-sold out shows tickets will be available at the door.
