Delavan-Darien High School recently entertained fans with a trio of performances of ‘Footloose the Musical.’
Footloose is the story of Ren McCormack, a teenage boy from Chicago. He and his mother move to the small town of Bomont after his father abandons them.
Upon arriving, Ren finds himself at odds with most of the town, including the Reverend Shaw Moore. The Reverend has convinced the town to outlaw dancing, which Ren finds unbelievable.
With the help of Ariel (Reverend’s daughter) and Willard (a country hick who becomes his best friend), Ren convinces the Reverend to let the teenagers dance, and in the process helps the town to heal from a tragedy that affected them all.
The musical was performed March 8-10. See more photos in the April 4 Delavan Enterprise.
