From real life to the screen to the stage, Disney’s Newsies is based on the real Newsboys’ Strike in 1899, a New York City strike led by working-class youth who successfully organized and won better conditions for newsboys from Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst.
The musical is based on the 1992 Disney film starring Christian Bale, and features classic numbers including “Seize the Day,” “Once and For All,” and “King of New York.” It opened on Broadway in 2012 and became a smash hit, running for years and even getting a filmed version of the production on Disney+.
Synopsis: When the scheming Joseph Pulitzer increases the cost of papers for newsboys to increase his own profit, the charming Jack Kelly partners with the intelligent Davy and budding female journalist Katherine Pulitzer to create a union and organize a strike.
