Sterling High School presents ‘Newsies’ this weekend

STERLING — Sterling High School will present “Newsies, The Musical” on Friday, Feb. 23, at 7:30 p.m.; Saturday, Feb. 24, at 7:30 p.m.; and Sunday, Feb. 25, at 2 p.m.

Set in turn-of-the century New York City, Newsies is the rousing tale of Jack Kelly, a charismatic newsboy and leader of a band of teenaged “newsies.” When titans of publishing raise distribution prices at the newsboys’ expense, Jack rallies newsies from across the city to strike against the unfair conditions and fight for what’s right.

Centennial Auditorium is located at 1608 Fourth Ave., Sterling.
