Caldera High School Theatre invites the community to experience Disney’s Newsies this May, a high-energy musical filled with unforgettable songs, dynamic choreography, and an inspiring, true story.
Set in turn-of-the-century New York City, Newsies follows Jack Kelly and a determined group of young newsboys who rally together to stand up for what’s right. Featuring beloved songs like “Carrying the Banner,” “Seize the Day,” and “Santa Fe,” the show delivers a thrilling, feel-good experience for audiences of all ages.
This ambitious production highlights the depth of talent within Caldera’s theatre program:
- 60+ students involved across cast, crew, and live pit orchestra
- A large student-built set
- High-energy choreography and show-stopping musical numbers
Following a fall season that saw multiple sold-out performances, excitement is already building for this spring production.
“After the incredible success we saw with Frozen in the fall, we’re so excited to bring Newsies to the stage,” said director Lindsay Nickerson. “It’s a high-energy, uplifting show full of heart, and our students have poured so much into the music, dancing, and storytelling”
The production highlights the depth of Caldera High School Theatre’s performing arts program and the collaborative work of students across all areas of theatre production.
