DDHS Presents Newsies: The Musical

Community  /  Employees  /  Students

Come and support our David Douglas students this November!  

Tickets are available now for the Performing Arts Department’s fall production, Disney’s Newsies The Musical! 

The Story

Set in turn-off-the-century New York City, “Newsies” is the rousing tale of Jack Kelly, a charismatic newsboy and leader of a band of teenaged “newsies.” When titans of publishing raise distribution prices at the newsboys’ expense, Jack rallies newsies from across the city to strike against the unfair conditions and fight for what’s right! 

Based on the 1992 motion picture and inspired by a true story, Newsies features a Tony Award-winning score by Alan Menken (Little Shop of Horrors, Sister Act) and Jack Feldman and a book by Tony Award winner Harvey Fierstein (Kinky Boots). 

Featuring the now classic songs “Carrying the Banner,” “Seize the Day,” and “Santa Fe,” Newsies is packed with non-stop thrills and a timeless message, perfect for the whole family and every audience. 

Music by: Alan Menken 

Lyrics by: Jack Feldman
