They Dared To Dance! - The Hit Movie Live On Stage!

When Kevin Bacon's too-cool-for-school teenager Ren McCormack dared to dance his way out of Chicago and into small town Bomont in the movie Footloose, an icon for the 80s was born. The high-energy dance movie Footloose burst onto cinema screens in 1984 and took the world by storm with its youthful spirit, dazzling dance and electrifying music. Footloose tells the story of city boy Ren who has to move to a rural backwater in America where dancing is banned. ALl hell breaks out as Ren breaks loose and soon has the whole town on its feet.

"Nothing comes hotter than Footloose. Wonderfully presented by an all-singing, all-dancing cast. The music was fantastic, the dancing was energetic and the floor was almost shaking with foot-tapping" The Daily Mirror

Footloose the Musical is back in London! The stage show was originally staged at The Novello Theatre whereit played a seven month season from 12 April to 11 November 2006. In addition the stage show has enjoyed a couple of major UK tours, both before and after the 2006 London season.

"A joyous show that had the audience on its feet" The Sunday Express

"Kicks up a high octane storm" The London Evening Standard

"If I'd had a steton, I'd have hurled it in the air" The Guardian

This stage version of Footloose in London features a dynamic young cast and is packed full of amazing dance and the classic hits from the movie including Holding Out For A Hero, Almost Paradise, Let's Hear It For The Boy and, of course, the title track, Footloose.
