The Jr. 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. When powerful American newspaper publishers raise prices at the newsboys’ expense, the charismatic Jack Kelly rallies newsies from across NYC to strike against unfair conditions and create a movement to fight for what’s right.
