Disney’s Newsies Musical Heading to Broadway in 2012

Open the gates and seize the day! Following a successful run at New Jersey’s Paper Mill Playhouse, the Harvey Fierstein-adapted stage musical Newsies — based on the best period musical of all time about turn of the century paperboys fighting Big Business (that also starred Christian Bale ) — will open on honest-to-goodness Broadway in March.
