One of the most explosive movie musicals in recent memory bursts onto the live stage with exhilarating results. When Ren and his mother move from Chicago to a small farming town, he is prepared for the inevitable adjustment period at his new high school. What he isn't prepared for are the rigorous local edicts, including a ban on dancing instituted by the local preacher, determined to exercise the control over the town's youth that he cannot command in his own home. When the reverend's rebellious daughter sets her sights on Ren, her roughneck boyfriend tries to sabotage Ren's reputation, with many of the locals eager to believe the worst about the new kid. 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. 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 17 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.
Hit songs in the show include Footloose (Kenny Loggins), Let's Hear It for the Boy (Deniece Williams), Almost Paradise (Mike Reno & Ann Wilson), Holding Out for a Hero (Bonnie Tyler) and I'm Free (Heaven Helps the Man) (Kenny Loggins).
Seven Angels Theatre Frequently Asked Questions FAQ
Seven Angels Theatre is at Seven Angels Theatre P.O. Box 3358, Waterbury, CT.
The Hamilton Park Pavilion was originally opened on September 9, 1925 at a cost of $75,000.00. It was constructed as a Big Band Dance Hall. The first musical performer was Johnny Clark and His Orchestra. Later it was altered and renovated in 1941 by E. Wallace Cone and in 1978 by John Damico. The Pavilion was then used as a roller skating rink. The floor of the Pavilion is the same floor used, and the circular floor boards can still be seen in the lobby. In 1991, this historic Hamilton Park Pavilion became home to Seven Angels Theatre. The fledgling, non-profit made over $125,000 of renovations using private donation funds, and in the Spring of 1992, the theatre officially opened with the world premier of the musical Balancing Act.
