Disney's NEWSIES on Broadway - First Day at the Nederlander Theatre

The cast arrives at the Nederlander Theatre for the very first time.
Now is the time to seize the day with NEWSIES, Disney's smash-hit New York musical.
Winner of the 2012 Tony Awards for Best Score and Best Choreography, NEWSIES has audiences and critics alike calling it, "AN EXHILARATING JOLT OF ENERGY!" (NY Daily News) This inspiring true story about a band of underdogs who stand up to the most powerful men in New York is high-energy explosion of song and dance. It's a TOP CRITICS' PICK (New York Magazine, Time Out New York, Entertainment Weekly) you just don't want to miss.
A record-breaking phenomenon, NEWSIES was brought to the stage by a winning creative team. Featuring a score by Alan Menken and Jack Feldman, choreography by Christopher Gattelli and a book by Harvey Fierstein, NEWSIES is directed by Jeff Calhoun.
NEWSIES North American tour begins fall 2014.

OMG I'm seriously tearing up right now. I've loved this movie for SO long, and to finally see it come to Broadway...I cannot even express my incredible amount of joy. I'd like to thank Andrew SO MUCH for documenting the transition from Papermill to Netherlander. It seriously makes my day whenever I see a new video in my subscription list. =) I love all of the names-they're so silly! But, as a proud Fansie...I have to say "The Headline" GOOD LUCK ON THURSDAY GUYS!!! -Gigi
