Based on the classic film, Footloose features electrifying choreography and a score of iconic 1980s anthems, including hits like "Footloose," Footloose follows Ren McCormack, a teenager who moves to a small town where dancing has been banned. As he challenges the community's restrictions, the town is forced to confront long-held beliefs and rediscover the value of connection, expression, and celebration. "Footloose is the perfect musical for spring, full of life, energy, and a whole lot of guts. It's loud, tender, and much more honest than people remember," said Director Heather Schutz. "It's a story that reminds us joy isn't frivolous. Sometimes it's the bravest thing a community can choose. This cast has poured so much heart into every rehearsal, and I can't wait for audiences at The Strand to feel it too." The cast of Footloose includes Russell Scott (Ren McCormack), Adam Sechelski (Reverend Shaw Moore), Meghan Gray (Ariel Moore), Rachel Miller (Vi Moore), Vivian Waye (Rusty), Joseph Sherer (Willard Hewitt), Jeanna Terry (Ethel McCormack), Josh Hudson (Chuck Cranston), Jalyn Bentley (Urleen), and Anna Wooley (Wendy Jo). The ensemble features Jordan Renee Ward (Swing), Lance McDougall (Swing), Maya Simmons (Dance Captain), Jude Hilton, Hugo Barbuto, Gina Delise, and Joseph Evans II.
