Footloose: Youth editionStage Adaptation by Dean Pitchford and Walter Bobbie
Based on the original screenplay by Dean Pitchford Music by Tom Snow Lyrics by Dean Pitchford Additional Music by Eric Carmen, Sammy Hagar, Kenny Loggins and Jim Steinman RISING STARS CAMP For youth not cast in the show, those with too many conflicts, or those who don't wish to be in a full production, there's a NEW opportunity this year. A two-week commitment (July 15 - 28), the Rising Stars Camp will help youth actors become more confident by teaching them audition techniques, acting techniques, and a song and dance that will be performed as a prelude at each performance. Camp participants need to go through the audition process. Get all the details, plus camp and cast expectations below. |
Dust off your dancing shoes! And get ready to bust a move when the electrifying story of Footloose is brought to life by a cast of talented young actors (entering 7 - 9 grade this fall) who are all ready to tap, twirl and shake their way into your hearts.
Ren McCormack, a teenager with rhythm in his soul, lands in Bomont, a town where dancing is strictly forbidden. But Ren can't help but move! And when he finds an unlikely ally in the rebellious daughter of the town's strict reverend, together they spark a revolution. Can they overcome tradition and bring back the joy of dance? A G-Rated version, this is Footloose fun for the whole family. You'll be ready to sing and dance along to iconic hits such as "Holding Out for a Hero" and "Footloose." You're not only in for a good time, you're helping to nurture the next generation of performers. Don't miss this show! |
