Newsies

Stop the Presses and enjoy La Comedia Dinner Theatre's delicious buffet and the Tony-Award winning production of Disney's Newsies. This Disney film turned Tony-winning Broadway hit inspires everyone to fight for what's right and seize the day. Set in turn-of-the century New York City, "Newsies" is the rousing tale of Jack Kelly, a charismatic newsboy and leader of a band of teenaged "newsies." When titans of publishing raise distribution prices at the newsboys’ expense, Jack rallies newsies from across the city to strike against the unfair conditions. Based on the 1992 motion picture and inspired by a true story, "Newsies" features a Tony Award-winning score by Alan Menken and Jack Feldman and a book by Tony Award winner Harvey Fierstein. Featuring the now classic songs “Carrying the Banner,” “Seize the Day,” and “Santa Fe,” "Newsies" is packed with non-stop thrills and a timeless message, perfect for the whole family. Children 11 and under are just $30. Buy-one-get-one-free discounted adult tickets are available with La Comedia's "A Taste of Savings" Loyalty Card.
