5 Reasons Not to Miss Newsies – Encore Stage & Studio

The Leaps
The choreography in this production is off the charts! Full of kicks, leaps, and taps that will leave you (and the cast) breathless, the dance numbers of Newsies do not disappoint, from the second number of the show on through to the finale.

The Harmony
Working hand in hand with Anneke Collins’ superb choreography are the gorgeous and catchy songs by Alan Menken. Music Director Sarah Markovits does a beautiful job working with the cast to draw out the emotional, moving, and motivating intricacies in each piece. You’ll definitely be humming all the way home from the theatre.

The Brawl
In contrast to the graceful dance moves and lovely singing, we’ve also got quite the staged brawl in store for our audiences. We won’t give away who wins, but with nearly every member of the cast onstage for the fight, the results are sure to be epic.

The Laughs
This newsboys’ union is chock full of wise-cracking hooligans, so be prepared to crack a smile, if not bust out an outright belly laugh.

The Cast
As so often happens in the making of theatre, life imitates art when it comes to the cast. The onstage bonds create real and meaningful friendships. These connections help actors to give even more of themselves to their characters, creating genuine and well-rounded characters as they support their fellow cast members. Come take in the talent, friendship, and joy that comes bursting out of this cast with each and every performance.
