Footloose the Musical

28 June - 5 July

Presented by St Philip's Christian College

EVERYBODY CUT FOOTLOOSE!

Moving in from Chicago, newcomer Ren McCormack is in shock when he discovers the small Midwestern town he now calls home has made dancing and rock music illegal. As he struggles to fit in, Ren faces an uphill battle to change things. With the help of his new friend, Willard and soul-searching teen, Ariel, he might loosen up this conservative town. But Ariel's influential father, Reverend Shaw Moore stands in the way.

This much-loved musical features the huge '80's hits "Holding Out For a Hero", "Let's Hear it for the Boy" and "Footloose".  Featuring BIG production design, some of the best musicians in Newcastle, and a story that will keep your toes tapping, this Senior school full-length musical will inspire you cut loose with Footloose!
