Review: NEWSIES at The Argyle Theatre
by Sam Desmond - Feb 4, 2026
A musical forged in ambition of set, stage, and stamina, director Tommy Ranieri’s vision of a world only beginning to stand up for their rights was sprawling and spectacular. Unlike other versions of “Newsies,” Rainieri’s production had a maturity that touched the cast’s characters to truly feel they deserved better than the circumstances they were backed into.

And the WPPAC production delivers in a big - very big way.
