About

Based on the 1984 film of the same name, Footloose follows Ren McCormack after he moves from the bright lights of Chicago to the small farming town of Bomont where life couldn’t be more different. Following the death of four teenagers in Bomont’s Potawney Bridge accident, strict measures were put in place, including a curfew, a ban on drinking, and worst of all… Dancing. Join Ren’s efforts to unify the divided town and convince the town council to find it in their heart and to put on a school dance.

Featuring chart topping songs Holding Out for a Hero and Let’s Hear It for the Boy. Lose your blues and come and watch Footloose!

Sussex Musical Theatre Society (SMuTS) is a student-run society returning to the ACCA after the success of the Sondheim classic ‘Company’ in 2022 to produce this fan favourite musical!
