One of the most explosive movie musicals in recent memory bursts onto the live stage with exhilarating results!  When Ren and his mother move from Chicago to a small farming town, Ren is not prepared for the rigorous local edicts, including a ban on dancing instituted by the local preacher. When the reverend's rebellious daughter sets her sights on Ren, her roughneck boyfriend tries to sabotage Ren's reputation. You’ll be rockin' to the Oscar and Tony-nominated top 40 score and soundtrack that reached number one on the Billboard charts. Performed by over 40 teens from the greater Newburyport area, FOOTLOOSE celebrates the wisdom of listening to young people.
