Footloose The Musical is a show about open-mindedness which seeks to remind us of the value of heeding the wisdom of youth, as well as the of the power of passionate changemaking. This exhilarating musical opens with a teenage boy moving from Chicago with his mother to a small farming town where he finds rigorous local edicts, including a ban on dancing instituted by the local preacher. The heartfelt story that emerges is of a father longing for the son he lost and of a young man aching for the father who walked out on him. Based on the smash hit film by the same name, Footloose The Musical features a score bursting with your favorite songs from the 1980s, and, of course, foot-loads of dancing.

Shrek the Musical

3-week Performance Camp for youth ages 5-18 plus adult mentors

Camp tuition fee for youth: $150/week ($450 for 3-week camp)
Rehearsal/Camp Days: July 6-24, 2020, Monday-Friday 9am-3pm
Performances: July 23-26, 2020

Shrek, a mild-natured green ogre, and Donkey, a donkey, set off to save the land from the vertically-challenged Lord Farquaad and stumble upon the arguably lovely Princess Fiona. To Shrek’s surprise, he finds something appealing—something strange and different—about this pretty princess…but why does she always run off when the sun sets? Based on the blockbuster movie and the book by William Steig, Shrek the Muscial is an unforgettable, gut-bustlingly-funny romp through fairy tale land which is sure to steal your heart.
