Exciting Winter Musical News for the Darlington Community!
I’m thrilled to announce that the Upper School Winter Musical for the 2024-25 school year is Disney's Newsies! In this high-energy, award-winning musical, a group of newsboys and girls fight for fair wages and better working conditions on the streets of 1899 New York. It’s a show full of powerful songs, memorable characters, and an inspiring message. We hope this will be an unforgettable production, and we can’t wait for Darlington to experience the magic!
Mark Your Calendars!
Newsies will take the stage February 21-23, 2025, at the historic Rome City Auditorium. Be sure to save the date and help us make this community-wide event one for the history books!
