Extra! Extra! Read all about it! The Peekskill Middle School Drama Company is presenting Disney’s Newsies Jr. and the Peekskill Herald is gonna shout it!
On Friday February 9th at 7:00 pm and twice on Saturday, February 10th at 2:00 pm and 7:00 pm at the Peekskill Middle School, the PKMS Drama Company will roll back the curtain and put on the spectacular 13 number musical Newsies Jr.
Disney’s Newsies JR. is a shortened version of the 2012 Broadway musical, based on the 1992 film. Newsies Jr. is inspired by the rousing true story of newsboys in turn-of-the-century New York City. When powerful newspaper publishers raise prices at the newsboys’ expense, the charismatic Jack Kelly rallies newsies from across the city to strike against the unfair conditions. Together, the newsies learn that they are stronger united and create a movement to fight for what’s right.
