TOWANDA St. Agnes School students will stage Disneys Newsies JR. at the Keystone Theater in Towanda this weekend, with performances Friday and Saturday, April 19 and 20. The show will begin at 7 p.m. both days. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m.
The 60-minute show, directed by Jessica Bundle, will bring together more than 60 students from kindergarten to sixth grade. The musical is based on the 1992 Disney film Newsies, as well as the 2012 Broadway production of the same name, but is modified for school-age performers.
Auditions began in December and the actors have been practicing their roles ever since. Bundle explained that students in kindergarten through third grade will automatically get a role if they want to participate, but students in grades four through six must audition. However, everyone who auditions is also guaranteed a role.
Disney's Newsies JR. tells the story of Jack Kelly, a newspaper salesman who leads a group of young journalists in 1899 Manhattan. When publishers raise prices at the expense of newspapers, Jack organizes a strike including workers across the city.
This is only the second year St. Agnes has returned to performing spring musicals since the school took a four-year hiatus from performing. Bundle noted that student shyness and apprehension are recurring obstacles year after year.
Just getting them to sing in front of each other is still a struggle, Bundle said, but they are becoming more confident, more accustomed to it.
The show features award-winning music by Alan Menken and Jack Feldman, including songs like Carrying the Banner, Seize the Day and King of New York.
Bundle noted that Newsies' music is a favorite of his and students'.
The songs are all really good, Bundle said. I don't even think kids have a favorite song. They love them all.
She noted that the show's team was testing the sound system before a dress rehearsal on Thursday and the students began singing along to the music.
That's what I love, Bundle said, when they come in and they're enthusiastic and excited.
Tickets will be available at the door both nights, with reduced rates for children and seniors. For more information or to reserve tickets in advance, call (570) 265-6803.
I would love for the community to come out and support the kids, Bundle said. They worked so hard and I think it’s worth seeing.
