Join us as we celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of this classic story, unforgettable music and dynamic dancing. Thirty years ago, Kevin Bacon taught the youth of Bomont ? and the nation ? that kids just want to dance. Footloose made its big screen debut in 1984, and became a box office hit. Nominated for an Oscar award for best song, the movie captured the hearts and imaginations ? and dancing feet ? of a generation. Now, thirty years later, through the talented company at ShenanArts, Footloose returns to our community in the beautiful nTelos Theater at Gypsy Hill Place in Staunton, VA.
