Step Onto Stage Presents Newsies Jr

Step Onto Stage Ltd are delighted to announce our first musical Disney's Newsies Jr at The Abbey Theatre on Wednesday 12th and Thursday 13th March 2025. The inspiring 60-minute musical, designed for school-aged performers, is based on the 1992 Disney film Newsies and the 2012 Broadway production of the same name.

Its time to carry the banner with Disneys Newsies JR.! Youll be doing flips for the rousing tale of Jack Kelly, a charismatic newsboy and leader of a band of young newsies in Manhattan. When titans of publishing raise distribution prices at the newsies expense, Jack rallies young workers from across the city to strike against the unfair conditions and fight for what's right! Adapted especially for young performers, this musical features a Tony Award-winning score by Alan Menken and Jack Feldman and a book by Tony Award winner Harvey Fierstein, and includes rousing songs like Carrying the Banner, Seize the Day, and King of New York. Newsies JR. is packed with nonstop thrills and a timeless message perfect for the whole family and every audience.
