I was treated by my dear friend, Julie Gallaher, of Get on the Map and Broadway Sacramento to the dress rehearsal performance of Disney’s Newsies. Newsies is based on the newsboys strike of 1899, when odds were against them, they banded together to fight the powerful publishers.

Dinner before the show?

You can get parking and dining information here. We usually meet at Chando’s for dinner and walk across the street to the theater. They have the best tacos! Check out their low carb menu.

You never know who you might run into.

We had great seats inside the theater. Sacramento Mayor, Daryl Steinberg, was seated near us. He’s such a friendly laid back person. I spent the day with him in the green room and backstage when I was a photographer for TEDxSacramento a few years back. It was before he was our mayor. As you can see in the photo below, he’s accessible and approachable. You’ll get a friendly greeting if you see him out and about.

My favorite photo of the evening!

My friend, April, and her sister taking a selfie. The printing press on stage was real! I loved the way they set up the props throughout the theater in the round. See the clotheslines.

Stay up to date with Broadway Sacramento and see what shows playing soon.

The theatre-in-the round Broadway At Music Circus experience just keeps getting better and better! Where else can you see some of Broadway’s most talented actors in such an intimate and casual setting? With even bigger savings and other great benefits, there’s no better way to experience Broadway At Music Circus than being a season ticketholder.
