The Pop Cast, along with two other casts and a student technical crew, present OIS’s Getting to Know…Footloose at the Bulldog Theater on April 25-27. Based on the beloved movie and Broadway show, but specifically adapted for young performers, the musical tells the story of Ren, a Chicago-raised teen who moves to a small farm town and struggles against the repression and restrictions in his new home, including a ban on dancing instituted by a local preacher. The 90-minute production features songs from the movie’s iconic soundtrack as well as dynamic new works pulled from the stage show. For show times and to purchase tickets, go to www.showtix4u.com. Tickets are also available at OIS’s Bulldog Theater one half hour prior to show times.
