In 1899 droves of newsboys from every borough of New York City banned together and went on strike against Joseph Pulitzer, William Randolph Hearst and other wealthy newspaper owners, in a crusade to save children from menial wages and physical abuse. This was a first, where uneducated street kids stood up to the big suits and won. In 1992 Disney created the movie Newsies that went on to become a humongous hit. In 2012 Harvey Fierstein, Alan Menken and Jack Feldman came to Broadway with a musical show they created based on the film. Under the Disney banner, the first national tour of Newsies is currently onstage at the Pantages. All I can say is run, don't walk, to purchase tickets. The Newsies ensemble pulsates from the moment the lights hit the stage. It will jolt you, fulfill you and make you jump for joy.

Once upon a time, before smart phones and the Internet and Facebook, there were newspapers. And if someone wanted to find out what was happening in the world, they had to buy a paper, often from boys selling the paper on city streets, hawking its headlines like town criers.
They delivered the papers, until they made the headlines… Direct from Broadway comes NEWSIES, the smash-hit, crowd-pleasing new musical from Disney

Now according to Variety, the tour will feature a brand new song for 'Crutchie' from songwriting team Alan Menken and Jack Feldman. The duo created the song, titled 'Letter from the Refuge,' when Disney Theatrical Productions' Thomas Schumacher challenged them to add another tune as a part of the American Theater Wing series 'Working in the Theater.'
Jen Noble (Ghost), Remy Zaken (Spring Awakening), Jeremy Greenbaum (Newsies), Corey Mach (Godspell), Chris McCarrell (LES MISERABLES), and Kevin Carolan (Newsies) attended a launch party last weekend on Sunday, October 26 for BACK TO REALITY at Tribeca Cinemas.
