BWW Review: Village's NEWSIES Brings Intimacy to the Big Splashy Musical
by Jay Irwin - Nov 10, 2017

If you want that you can read my previous review of the touring show. Instead what we will and should be talking about is how the current production at Village theater not only matched the fun, talent and power that existed in the big, splashy Broadway tour but in some ways surpassed it.
