From Seattle Theatre Group, a non-profit arts organization

Tonight we are excited to welcome you to the much-anticipated 9th show in our 2015/2016 KeyBank Broadway at The Paramount Season, NEWSIES! This smash-hit, which garnered Tony Awards® for Best Score and Best Choreography, has been bringing audiences to their feet since it opened on Broadway in 2012, and we are thrilled to be bringing it to the Paramount for the first time.

Though this is the first time the production is taking the stage at the Paramount, STG has been developing a relationship with NEWSIES for some time now. Working with our Education and Community Programs team, Lou Castro, NEWSIES Assistant Choreographer staged “Seize the Day” with Seattle area young dancers who performed in the DANCE This performance last July at the Moore Theatre.

This is just one example of STG’s continued efforts to explore how the shows on our KeyBank Broadway at the Paramount season can offer opportunities that help us to reach a growing community of young artists. It’s these relationships that have a lasting effect and ultimately benefit those young artists who are so eager to learn from new and challenging experiences.

We hope the STG/Disney relationship will continue to grow as these amazing programs continue to develop, and we thank all of you for continuing to support this work through your subscriptions and donations.

Thank you to Disney, the company of NEWSIES, KeyBank Broadway at The Paramount, Broadway Across America, and our STG Education staff for all they have done to help these programs and this partnership blossom. And with that, we invite you to sit back and enjoy the rousing music, incredible dance numbers, and astonishingly inspirational story of Disney’s NEWSIES!

Your Dollars @ Work Disney Musicals in Schools

In March 2014, Disney Theatrical Group invited Seattle Theatre Group to launch Disney Musicals in Schools (DMIS) in the Seattle region. Together, our goal is to provide the training necessary for teachers to continue a tradition of theatre education in under-resourced elementary schools for years to come.

Over the course of a semester, Seattle Theatre Group Teaching Artists guide school teachers through the process of mounting a musical with student performers. This year, Dunlap, South Shore, Martin Luther King, and McMicken Heights Elementary Schools have been selected to participate in the program.

On Tuesday, March 29, 2016, these schools performed excerpts from their renditions of Aladdin, The Jungle Book, and The Lion King in the Student Share Celebration at The Moore Theatre. The student share event was free and open to the public.

Your support makes it possible to provide this experience to students and faculty. Performance rights, ShowKit materials, Professional Development, and onsite Teaching Artist support are provided at no charge. Disney Musicals in Schools empowers schools to connect students with the arts now and into the future, exposing them to the many benefits of musical theatre, including the development of self-confidence, collaborative skills, speaking and reading skills, and creativity.
