Newsies
The Argyle Theatre
January - March 2026
Dream to Survive. Survive to Dream.
At its heart, Newsies asks a simple but powerful question: what happens when a community that dreams to survive chooses to survive in order to dream?
Set in 1899 New York City, the young people at the center of this story live without guarantees about tomorrow. Jack Kelly’s dream of Santa Fe begins as a personal escape, but as the newsies stand together, that dream becomes something larger than one person.
What begins as survival becomes solidarity. Newsies reminds us that even the smallest voices can shift the balance of power, and that dreaming together is often the first step toward changing the world.
