Dancing onto the Festival Theatre stage with boundless energy and enthusiasm, The Beyond Broadway Experience presents a Footloose that is a showcase of Scottish talent and training, an invigorating look into the up-and-coming generations of musical theatre performers.
Based on the 1984 film of the same name, Footloose tells the story of Chicago teen Ren McCormack, who loves to dance, moving with his mother to the small town of Bomont after they are abandoned by his father. Ren quickly discovers that Bomont is nothing like Chicago, and that after a tragic accident several years before, dancing has been outlawed. Not that this will stop Ren…
