Newsies Tickets now on Sale and Q&A with John Musker at Part of His World

Two updates today.  First get ready to seize the day as tickets for Newsies: The Musical, which stars Andrew Keenan-Bolger (Omar in Aladdin: The New Stage Musical) as Crutchie, are now on sale here.  The show is booked for a limited run of just 12 weeks from 15th March until 10th June at New York's Nederlander Theatre, so be sure to get them now whilst they're still hot off the presses as they're sure to go fast.

Ok, that's enough of the bad puns.  The second piece of news is that Howard Ashman's sister, Sarah Gillespie has posted a new blog asking for questions for John Musker.  As most of you will know John Musker was, along with Ron Clements, co-director of both The Little Mermaid and Aladdin where he worked with Howard Ashman and Alan Menken.  If you have a question you'd like to ask (about Howard, John and their work, not necessarily about Aladdin) pop over and say hi!  This is an amazing opportunity for any Disney fan to ask a question of one of their best directors.  I know I'm going to try and think of one or two!
