ABOUT
Footloose is a high-energy musical based on the 1984 film of the same name. It follows Ren McCormack, a teenager from Chicago who moves to the small town of Bomont, where dancing and rock music have been banned by a conservative minister, Reverend Shaw Moore, following a tragic accident. Ren, feeling out of place and frustrated by the town’s strict rules, challenges the ban and rallies the local teens to fight for their right to dance. Along the way, he forms a connection with the reverend’s rebellious daughter, Ariel, and helps the town confront its grief and rediscover joy through music and movement.
The show features a dynamic mix of heartfelt moments and energetic dance numbers, showcasing classic hits like “Holding Out for a Hero,” “Let’s Hear It for the Boy,” and the iconic title track “Footloose.” At its core, Footloose is about youth empowerment, healing, and the clash between tradition and change. With a spirited cast of characters and an infectious pop-rock score, the musical celebrates the power of self-expression and the importance of standing up for what you believe in.
