Disney’s Newsies, a 1992 film turned 2011 Broadway Musical, is based on true events from New York City Newsies strike of 1899 when a group of gritty, rag tag children found power in unity and stood up to the media moguls of the era, transforming child labor laws and empowering workers of all ages and circumstances to better their working conditions. Our Quincy Drama Society’s Newsies is a song and dance extravaganza through the streets of New York, a story of chosen family, of finding your voice, of being stronger in community and of creating unlikely connections with people who change your life and your perspective. Come celebrate the joy of overcoming with our cast and crew of almost 50 modern day kids as they bring history to life on the stage at Tibbits Opera House!
