The Buffalo Community Theater takes the stage again tonight (Saturday) with their production of “Disney’s Newsies Jr.”
Those familiar with the original 1992 movie, or the 2012 Broadway musical will recognize the familiar story and music of “Newsies Jr.”
“Newsies Jr.” tells the story of Jack Kelly, a charismatic newsboy who dreams of a better life outside the slums of New York, and is based on the true story of the newsboys strike of 1899. Jack leads a group of fellow “newsies” in the strike when publishing tycoon Joseph Pulitzer raises the price the newsboys must pay for their papers, cutting into their meager profit.
Don’t miss this production with lively music and dance on stage tonight (Saturday) at 7 PM, and a final matinee performance Sunday afternoon at 2 PM at the Discovery Elementary School Auditorium in Buffalo.
Tickets available online at; www.bctmn.org, and at the door based on availability. Save 2 dollars on your total ticket purchase with the KRWC special code of: KRWC N-E-W-S.
