Footloose - The Musical

The biennial collaboration between Northwest's Music and Theatre programs continues with FOOTLOOSE, where the famous movie musical bursts onto the live stage!

When Ren and his mother move from Chicago to a small farming town, Ren isn't prepared for the ban on dancing instituted by the local preacher. 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. With its Oscar and Tony-nominated top 40 score and dynamic new songs for the stage musical, Footloose celebrates the wisdom of listening to young people, and guiding them with a warm heart and an open mind.

Footloose runs April 5-7 in the Mary Linn Auditorium in the Ron Houston Center for the Performing Arts.
Tickets are $12 for adults/$10 for students and seniors, and can be purchased at the Cashiering Office, by phone at 660-562-1321, or at the box office up to one hour before the show.
