Here's a description of the plot:
"Extra! Extra!" Sing all about it in this witty fast-paced musical revue that examines every human foible, failure, fact and fiction that’s fit to print.
The setting is a busy newsstand/coffee shop run by Joey, the old wizened proprietor.
He is assisted by the Kid who is young and idealistic about life. As the two purvey papers to their many customers, every section of the paper - from the want ads to the horoscopes, the obits, the advice column, the weather, the crossword puzzle and even the tabloids- are spoofed, spotlighted and celebrated in song.
Ticket prices:
