Newsies

The newsboys may be on strike, but that won’t stop them from singing. Disney’s Newsies chronicles a ragtag group of turn-of-the-century paperboys in their crusade against unjust distribution costs. Inspired by the true story of Kid Blink, a tough-as-nails, half-blind newsboy, both the musical and 1992 film of the same name have brought droves of teenage girls to madness, due in part to swoon-worthy actors in the lead role of Jack Kelly. The touring Broadway production features Dan DeLuca as Kelly, born the year the film hit the silver screen and starring in its rebirth 23 years later.
