Here’s a first look at the cast of Newsies taking to the stage at the Royal Variety Performance.

Adapted from the film of the same name, Disney’s Newsies is currently running at Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre with tickets on sale now here.
You can watch a first look at their performance at the Royal Variety Performance below…
After newspaper magnate Joseph Pulitzer hikes up the prices for his papers charged to the newsies, Jack Kelly rallies his fellow newsies in an attempt to protest the change, falling in love with young reporter Katherine along the way.
These young newsies from across the city come together and rise up against the exploitation of wealthy publishing tycoons and fight for justice using the only power they have – solidarity.
