One of the most explosive movie musicals bursts onto the live stage with exhilarating results. Ren and his mother move from Chicago to a small farming town where there is a ban on dancing instituted by the local preacher. When the reverend's daughter sets her sights on Ren her boyfriend trys to sabatoge Ren's reputation. The heartfelt story that emerges is of a father longing for the son he lost and of a young man aching for the father who walked out on him. Set to the rocking rhythm of its Oscar and Tony-nominated top 40 score, FOOTLOOSE celebrates the wisdom of listening to young people, guiding them with a warm heart and an open mind.
