The cast of the new Broadway musical Newsies performs on the Nov. 13 episode of ABC's "Dancing with the Stars: All Stars."

Corey Cott will lead the cast in a performance of "Seize the Day." The program airs at 8 PM ET; check local listings.

Newsies features a score with music by eight-time Academy Award winner Alan Menken and lyrics by Jack Feldman as well as a book by four-time Tony Award winner Harvey Fierstein.

Produced by Disney Theatrical Productions, Newsies is directed by Jeff Calhoun and choreographed by Christopher Gattelli.

The Broadway company features Corey Cott as Jack Kelly, Ron Raines as Joseph Pulitzer, Kara Lindsay as Katherine Plumber, LaVon Fisher-Wilson as Medda Larkin, Ben Fankhauser as Davey, Andrew Keenan-Bolger as Crutchie, and Nicholas Lampiasi and Jake Lucas alternating the role of Les.
