Pittsburgh Musical Theater will present its final Seize the Stage season show, “Disney’s Newsies,” at the Byham Theater, 101 6th St., Pittsburgh.

Set in New York City and inspired by a true story of the 1899 newsboy strike, the Broadway smash hit musical is filled with exuberant song and dance. The story follows Jack Kelly, the leader of a group of newsboys as they band together to take a stand for what’s right against publishing giant Joseph Pulitzer.

Featured are David Toole (Jack Kelly), Allan Snyder (Joseph Pulitzer) and Whitney Noelle (Katherine Plumber). The production team is led by director Trey Compton, choreographer Natalie Malotke and music director Francesca Tortorello.
