At Palmy Boys’
The PNBHS/PNGHS Senior Production Company is thrilled to bring you the NZ Premiere season of the full show of Newsies!! Packed with action and memorable music you’ll love, this show is based on the real event of the paper boys’ and girls’ strike in New York City in 1899. Sparked by newspaper magnates such as Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer demanding the newsies pay more for their papers, the previously unheard of militancy of the newsies caught the industry on the hop, and spread through other youth-labour dependent industries too. With a few audience-friendly additions such as a romantic line, the show follows the struggle and its significant outcome!
Onstage in the Speirs Centre March 20 – 29 2025
Tickets on sale from December 1st.
