Watch Newsies Interview With Moya Angela and Sam Bailey

Screen One Interview – Disney’s Newsies cast members Moya Angela & Sam Bailey

In this edition of the Screen One Interview we chat with Moya Angela and Sam Bailey two of the cast of the hit Disney Musical Newsies, now playing at Wembley Troubadour Theatre. We talk about the show itself, the music and dancing involved, what it’s like day-to-day and much more.

Based on a true story, NEWSIES is set in New York City at the turn of the 20th century. It’s the
rousing tale of a ragged band of teenage newspaper sellers, who dream of a better life far from
the hardship of the streets. After newspaper magnate Joseph Pulitzer hikes up the prices for his
papers charged to the newsies, Jack Kelly rallies his fellow newsies in an attempt to protest the
change, falling in love with young reporter Katherine along the way. These young newsies from
across the city come together and rise up against the exploitation of wealthy publishing tycoons and fight for justice using the only power they have – solidarity.
