BERKELEY UPPER DIVISION DEPARTMENTS OF THEATRE AND MUSIC PRESENT NEWSIES

Newsies won eight Tony Awards when it opened on Broadway, and launched the careers of some well-known Broadway talent. With its energetic score and large-scale dance gymnastics, Newsies hits a note lost between the pop-fantasy and ragtime of Bugsy Malone, and the realism of Gangs of New York. With toe-tapping and jaw-dropping dance numbers, catchy melodies, and stories based on real events, this is a show that all will enjoy.
