Footloose is one of the most explosive movie musicals in recent memory to burst onto the live stage with exhilarating results. To the rockin’ rhythm of its Oscar and Tony-nominated top 40 score and augmented with dynamic new songs for the stage musical, Footloose celebrates the wisdom of listening to young people, guiding them with a warm heart and an open mind.
This is the Broadway version of the show with mainly adult principals and a small youth ensemble. Children must be at least nine years old by December 31, 2018. Open auditions will be held on Monday, December 3 and Wednesday, December 5, 2018 at St. Catherine of Siena Church in the Lucey Parish Hall, 4 Riverside Avenue at the corner of Route 1, Riverside, CT.
