Newsies the Broadway Musical
Skokos Performing Arts Center – Play Performance Newsies the Broadway Musical

Nationally recognized, the ALMA THESPIANS’ annual musical production is seen by thousands, and draws audiences from the River Valley, NWA, and Eastern Oklahoma. Newsies is inspired by the real-life “Newsboy Strike of 1899,” when newsboy Kid Blink led a band of orphan and runaway newsies on a two-week-long action against Pulitzer, Hearst and other powerful newspaper publishers. Timely and fresh, the fictionalized adaptation of Newsies addresses age-old themes of social injustice, exploitative labor practices and David-versus-Goliath struggles as the young learn to harness their power against a corrupt establishment. High-energy with non-stop thrills!
