Footloose

Get ready to “Cut Loose” as Up and Coming Theatre presents the musical stage version of this beloved 1984 foot-tapping film in which the music-loving city slicker Ren McCormack finds himself having trouble adjusting to his new life in small-town Texas. Audiences of all ages will enjoy the rockin' rhythm of its Oscar-nominated score, spirited dancing, and story that celebrates the wisdom of listening to young people, guiding them with a warm heart and an open mind.  

Performances are August 5th, 6th, 11th, 12th and 13th at 7:30 p.m. and August 7th and 14th at 2:30 p.m. at Cutting Hall Theater 150 Wood St. in Palatine, IL.
