Stop The Presses! The Tony award-winning Newsies is finally coming to the Erie Playhouse. Set in turn-of-the century New York City, Newsies is the rousing tale of Jack Kelly, a charismatic newsboy and leader of a band of teenaged “newsies.” When titans of publishing raise distribution prices at the newsboys’ expense, Jack rallies newsies from across the city to strike against the unfair conditions and fight for what’s right! Based on the 1992 motion picture and inspired by a true story, Newsies can be counted one of the most critically-praised shows of recent seasons. Newsies features a Tony Award-winning score by Alan Menken and Jack Feldman and a book by Tony Award winner Harvey Fierstein. Newsies is a dance-packed musical with non-stop thrills and a timeless message, perfect for the whole family and every audience.
