Kick off your Sunday Shoes @ The Joan, March 16 & 17 as, Footloose, one of the most explosive movie musicals in recent times bursts onto the live stage with exhilarating results.

Relive the turbulent story of city teenager Ren’s move to a small town where rock music and dancing have been banned – a ban his rebellious spirit never saw coming! As he struggles to fit in, Ren faces an uphill battle to change things. With the help of his new friend and a defiant teen Ariel, he's gotta loosen up this conservative town. But Ariel's influential father, a local preacher, stands in the way. Can Ren get this old town groovin' again?

Footloose, at its core, is a heartfelt story of a father longing for the son he lost and of a young man aching for the father who walked out on him.

Set to the rockin’ rhythm of its Oscar and Tony-nominated top 40 score (the soundtrack album reached number one on the Billboard charts and has sold over 15 million copies!) and augmented with dynamic new songs for the stage musical, Footloose celebrates the wisdom of listening to young people, guiding them with a warm heart and an open mind.

Don’t forget, there is a time to cry, a time to laugh, a time to grieve and a time to dance, don’t miss your chance to see Footloose. Tickets are available online via thejoan.com.au or call our box office at 4723 7600.
