Footloose

January 03 — February 09

SYNOPSIS – MUSICAL

Based on the smash movie sensation of the same name,FOOTLOOSE is the story of a young man from Chicago named Ren McCormick. He moves to a small town with his mother after his father abandons them. Much to his amazement dancing and rock‘n’roll are forbidden. Through his tenacity and use of the Bible, Ren is able to convince the local minister to let the town’s high schoolers dance again.

However, FOOTLOOSE is more than a story about kids wanting to dance. It is the story of an outsider and a small community’s important journey past grief, loss, guilt, and disappointment; learning to trust and discovering the joys of celebrating life! And the best way to celebrate life is to dance, dance, DANCE!!! So what a better way to start a new year and the 2013 season at Artisan Center Theater! Leave the past behind, move forward into a glorious new year with a story of love, hope and renewal. And DANCE in celebration!!

FOOTLOOSE features songs like “I Need A Hero”, “Let’s Hear it For The Boy”, “Almost Paradise”, and of course “Footloose.”

This is a high energy show the whole family will enjoy!
