Footloose: Youth Edition
A dynamic, high-energy story celebrating the exhilaration of youth, the wisdom of listening to one another and the power of forgiveness.
City boy Ren thinks life is bad enough when he's forced to move to a rural backwater. But his world comes to a dead stop when he arrives in Bomont to find dancing and rock music are banned. Taking matters into his own hands, Ren challenges the repressive authorities and soon has the whole town on its feet.
The all-singing, all-dancing musical based on the Kevin Bacon cult classic film will make you kick off your Sunday shoes and tap your toes with hit numbers including ‘Let’s Hear It for the Boy’, ‘Holding out for a Hero’ and of course ‘Footloose’.

In the Next Room: or The Vibrator Play
Note 18+ recommendation!
A play full of charm and innocence set in 1880 at the dawn of electricity. The play delves into the bizarre historical fact that doctors used vibrators to treat 'hysterical' women (and some men). The story revolves around Dr. Givings, a proper gentleman and scientist who innocently invents a device for treating "hysteria," and his young wife, who becomes curious about the activities in the next room. As new patients enter their household, the dynamics of their marriage are tested, leading to profound revelations about love and connection.
Please note that the play contains adult themes, and we recommend it as 18+
Dates: Wed 13, Thu 14, Fri 15, Sat 16
