The hit 1984 movie, Footloose, showcased Kevin Bacon as Ren, Lori Singer as Ariel, and John Lithgow as Rev. Shaw Moore. The musical version ran on Broadway from 1998-2000, followed by a movie remake in 2011. WA performed Footloose in 2011. The Tony-nominated hit songs, "Footloose" and "Let's Hear It for the Boy", remain just as fun today. Contact Mr. McBurney, Producer, with questions.
