Newsies by Campolindo Musical Theatre
in Moraga, California

What To Know About This Production

The Campolindo High School Music Department is proud to present Disney's Newsies for its 2023 season. This story of an upstart group of feisty young street newspaper vendors in New York in 1899 who stand up to "big publishing," is a high energy, feel good show that will thrill our audiences. The Campo production will be largely "gender agnostic," with many roles traditionally cast as "male" characters open to those of any gender. Genders are noted in the character list. As with other Campo shows, there will be featured dance roles, but there are roles for people of all abilities in this production. All members of any of the Campolindo Choirs are invited to audition, and you do not need to have a preference for which character(s) in order to audtion. You must have a Profile on "Cast98", our new scheduling platform, in order to sign up for an audition. ALL performers in this production must audition.
