This May, a sparkling production of Footloose is coming to Bradford’s Alhambra Theatre.

Featuring the best of UK’s musical talent, Footloose is an effervescent performance based on the 1980s screen sensation which took the world by storm.

Footloose is a story about a city boy Ren who’s forced to move to a rural backwater in America, only to find out upon arrival that dancing and rock music is banned in his final destination. Refusing to comply, Ren takes matters into his own hands and soon has all hell breaking loose and the whole town on its feet.

With cutting edge modern choreography, you’ll enjoy classic 80s hits including ‘Holding Out for a Hero’, ‘Almost Paradise’, ‘Let’s Hear It For The Boy’ and of course the unforgettable title track ‘Footloose’.
