Footloose

When Ren McCormack and his mother move from Chicago to the town that everyone can definitely find on the map, Bomont, USA, they can expect a bit of an adjustment from the bustling city to bucolic farm life. What they don’t expect is having to adjust to local city laws including a ban on dancing instituted by the town preacher, Reverend Shaw Moore; a law designed to protect the town’s youth to the dangers that Rock and Roll music are sure to lead to, those that took the life of young Bobby Shaw and three other young people who held the promise of Bomont’s brightest future. Ren then takes it into his own hands to help the people of Bomont learn to let go and let loose by fighting for the right to throw a school dance. 

Celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Paramount Motion Picture this year, this stage musical adaptation is set to a slate of toe-tapping, rump shaking favorites, from the chart-topping Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, including the two number-one hits “Footloose”, the title number by Kenny Loggins and Deniece Williams’, and “Let’s Hear it for the Boy”. FOOTLOOSE the Musical, tells the story of a father longing for the son he lost, a young man yearning for the father who left and how those two help each other to heal.
