Set in New York City, 1899, Jack Kelly and his team of newsboys survive by living and selling newspapers on the city streets. When the prices of “papes” are hiked and the Newsies are hung out to dry, there is nothing left to do but “open the gates and seize the day!” Led by charismatic Jack and young newspaper reporter Katherine Plummer, the Newsies form a union and organise a strike against the greedy publisher of the New York World, Joseph Pulitzer.
Inspired by the true story of the 1899 Newsboys Strike, Newsies Jr is a joyful, and entertaining musical capturing the strength that young people have when they join together and stand up against injustice.

In 1963 Brighton, out-of-work skiffle player Francis Henshall becomes separately employed by two men – Roscoe Crabbe, a gangster, and Stanley Stubbers, an upper class twit. Francis tries to keep the two from meeting, in order to avoid each of them learning that Francis is also working for someone else. Complicating events, Roscoe is really Rachel Crabbe in disguise, Roscoe's twin sister. Roscoe had been killed by Rachel's boyfriend, who is none other than Stanley. Complicating it further still is local mobster Charlie the Duck, who has arranged his daughter Pauline's engagement to Roscoe despite her preference for over-the-top amateur actor Alan Dangle. Even further complications are prompted by several letters, a very heavy trunk, several unlucky audience volunteers, an extremely elderly waiter and Francis' pursuit of his two passions: Dolly (Charlie's feminist bookkeeper) and fish & chips.
Tickets: £15 (£12 concessions Tue-Thu) Earlybird tickets £12 until 31/7/25.

Presented by Phoenix Theatre Company
Mizzis Horrocks' class of seven year olds is about to perform their nativity play at Flint Street Junior School for the proud mums and dads - and the occasional social worker. Squabbles arise when Gabriel wants to play Mary, the Star grumbles he's not a proper star like they have at NASA, Herod won't stop waving to his mum and dad and the subversive Innkeeper is determined to liven up the traditional script. And then the stick insect escapes...
The children are played by adults, who later play their parents so the set changes accordingly to reflect the difference in scale.
This warm, witty, funny play is an ideal alternative to the usual Christmas fare with original lyrics set to the tunes of the usual Christmas carols.
