Winner for Disney's Newsies and Frankie's Cheesesteaks!


NEWSIESAPRIL 21-APRIL 26, 2015
UA CENTENNIAL HALL 


The winner for the giveaway is JANA RINARD


Disney's Newsies hits the stage in Tucson brought to us by Broadway in Tucson. Enter to win tickets and a gift certificate to go to Frankie's Cheesesteaks before the show.

Set in New York City at the turn of the century, Newsies is the rousing tale of Jack Kelly, a charismatic newsboy and leader of a ragged band of teenaged ‘newsies,’ who dreams only of a better life far from the hardship of the streets. But when publishing titans Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst raise distribution prices at the newsboys’ expense, Jack finds a cause to fight for and rallies newsies from across the city to strike for what’s right.  
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.  
The stage version introduces seven brand-new songs by the original team of Menken and Feldman while keeping many of the beloved songs from the film, including ‘Carrying the Banner’, ‘Seize the Day,’ ‘King of New York’ and ‘Santa Fe.’

Recommended for ages 6+. No babes in arms. Everyone needs a ticket.
