One more show has been added to DHT's production of Disney's Newsies for Friday, August 10 @ 7:30PM. The show runs from July 13 - August 12. Shows are Thursdays - Sundays (except for opening and closing week). Evening shows start at 7:30PM for Thursday - Saturdays. Sunday shows are at 4:00PM and Saturday matinees are at 3:00PM.
The show, a bona-fide Broadway hit, was inspired by the real-life Newsboy Strike of 1899. A high energy musical, the show addresses themes of social injustice and exploitative labor practices and features a David-versus-Goliath-like struggle as the young newsboys learn to about power and public influence.
Jack Kelly, a charismatic newsboy and leader of a ragged band of teenaged 'newsies, dreams of a better life far from the hardship of the streets. But when publishing titans Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst raise distribution prices at the newsboys' expense, Jack finds a cause to fight for and rallies newsies from across the city to strike for what's right.
