Don’t Delay, Seize the Day!
When powerful newspaper publishers raise prices at the newsboys’ expense, the charismatic Jack Kelly rallies newsies from across the city to strike against the unfair conditions. Together, the newsies learn that they are stronger united and create a movement to fight for what’s right.
Including the now-classic songs “Carrying the Banner,” “Seize the Day,” and “Santa Fe,” Newsies JR. is a timeless story full of spirit and heart.
*In the event of high demand for this camp, we will double cast and extend the run by two shows, so each cast has a chance to perform three times.

Attendance and Conflicts: Attending all rehearsals is vitally important to the outcome of this show, no matter what role your child is given. Even a single absence could affect blocking, line memorization and performance preparedness. We ask that students be committed to attend all rehearsals, unless they are sick. Attendance is mandatory for tech week and performances.
Refund Policy: Tuition will be refunded in full minus a $35 administrative fee if received in writing two weeks prior to the start of rehearsal. Cancellations received in writing with less than two weeks notice will receive a 50% discount unless the spot can be filled; in which case tuition will be refunded in full minus the $35 administrative fee. No refunds will be given after class starts.

Mask & Vaccine Policies
Rehearsals: Masks are strongly recommended, but not required. During rehearsals, and especially as we get closer to performances, ANY illness may result in the inability to participate in rehearsal and/or performances.
If your child has cold symptoms, nausea or a fever we ask you to keep them home. If your child becomes ill with covid, we require proof of a negative covid-19 test to return. An at home rapid-test OR PCR test are acceptable. We plan to have kids perform without masks.
We currently do not require your child to be vaccinated to participate.
Attending Performances: As of September 13, 2022, proof of vaccination for Covid-19 is no longer required. Masks continue to be highly recommended, but not required to attend.
