Disney’s Newsies JR. is a 60-minute version of the 2012 Broadway musical, based on the 1992 film inspired by the rousing true story of newsboys at the turn-of-the-century. 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. Newsies JR. features a book by Tony Award winner Harvey Fierstein and a Tony Award-winning score by Alan Menken and Jack Feldman, including the now-classic songs “Seize the Day,” and “Santa Fe.” Newsies JR. is a timeless story full of spirit and heart.

Thank you to our generous sponsors who support the arts!
At Lyric Music Theater, we strive to be community theater for the entire community. Hatred and bias against any group, ethnicity, or gender have NEVER had any place in our Theater, and that includes oppression, violence, and all acts of racism and/or prejudice.
First and foremost, we value and respect our differences, whether racial; cultural; gender identity; sexual orientation; socioeconomic; religious; physical or mental ability; or country of origin. We affirm our commitment to creating a place where everyone, from all walks of life, feels empowered and welcomed.
It is our responsibility as individuals, and as an institution, to make Lyric Music Theater a welcoming place for EVERYONE. We stand with our Community. That is our moral obligation, and we will stay ever vigilant in upholding these commitments.
