When city boy Ren McCormack is forced to leave school, work, and the night clubs of the big city and move to small town Bomont, he’s ready for a new high school. But he’s not ready for the local laws, which include a ban on dancing. Will this toe-tapping bad boy be able to win the hearts of the people and bring back dance to a town trying to overcome the memory of a tragedy?
Based on the hit 80s movie, Footloose explodes onto the stage with such memorable anthems as “Almost Paradise”, “Holding Out For A Hero”, “Let’s Hear It For The Boy” and, of course, “Footloose”.
One kid. One town. One chance.
