Catch NWU’s first Disney production. Jack Kelly is a charismatic newsboy and leader of a band of teenage New York newsies. When Joseph Pulitzer raises distribution prices at the newsboys’ expense, Jack and his newsies fight for what’s right. It’s big business vs. the underdogs in this high-energy musical for the whole family.
