Marshall Fundamental School Present Disney’s Newsies – The Broadway Musical
Marshall Fundamental School present the production of Disney’s Newsies – The Broadway Musical on Thursday March 16 at 6:00 p.m., Friday, March 17 at 6:00 p.m. and Saturday, March 18 at 1:00 p.m. & 6:00 p.m.
A Disney-adopted story inspired by true events in 1899, the musical follows the story of the news boys working in New York who, already scraping by and sleeping in the streets, come face to face with a nasty raise in distribution prices imposed on them by big publishing giants, Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst. Led by charismatic Jack Kelly, the boys come together to create a union and stand for their worth in a strike against the papers. The show draws us into a non-fiction tale of the working people’s uprising, finds distinctions between the struggling boys and their dreams, and delivers with a flare of romance as well.
Tickets are $10 on presale and $15 at the door.
