When greedy and powerful newspaper publisher, Joseph Pulitzer, raises prices at the newsies’ expense, the charismatic Jack Kelly rallies working kids across New York to stand up and strike for fair wages. Together, they learn that if the little guys band together and fight for what’s right, no one can stop them, not even mighty Joe Pulitzer.

Disney’s Newsies JR. is a 60-minute version of the 2012 Broadway musical, based on the 1992 film. Inspired by the rousing true story of newsboys in turn-of-the-century New York City, Newsies JR. features a Tony Award-winning score by Alan Menken and Jack Feldman and a book by Tony Award winner Harvey Fierstein.
