THE WAIT IS OVER! 🎸👟

We are thrilled to announce that our 2027 production is the high-voltage, heart-pumping classic...

FOOTLOOSE: YOUTH EDITION

From the magic of Aladdin (2021) to the rock-and-roll energy of We Will Rock You (2026), our cast has grown, evolved, and tackled every challenge we’ve thrown at them. Now, it’s time for the ultimate test of stamina, spirit, and soul.

We’re leaving the iPlanet behind and heading straight to the town of Bomont. It’s a place where tradition is law, the Minister is watching, and dancing is strictly forbidden.

📍 Where: Arlington Arts

🗓️ When: 19th & 20th March 2027 - get it in your calendars now!

Get ready for iconic 80s hits, incredible choreography, and a story about standing up for what’s right. Our journey from Chicago to Bomont starts now, and we can’t wait to show you what this amazing cast can do.

Are you ready to cut loose? Let’s go, 2027!

2027 show - clue #6: The final clue! Rules? As we know from our time performing Matilda, sometimes you have to be a little bit naughty. In 2027, we are going to be breaking the rules once again.

Final guesses?

These are definitely not the basketball boots from High School Musical (2022), the wellies from Singin’ in the Rain (2023), and they are certainly not the curled-up genie slippers from Aladdin (2021). We’re trading them all in for some Chicago high-tops and a pair of red cowboy boots.

2027 show - clue #4: Back to school! But we can promise you this isn't East High or Crunchem Hall. You’ll need more than the 'Status Quo' to survive these hallways! Thankfully, no Trunchbull or Chokey in sight.

Can you guess yet?

2027 show - clue #3: This is a very different kind of church from the one Deloris hid in during Sister Act back in 2025. In this town, the Minister makes the laws.

Are the pieces starting to fit together yet? What show could this be?

2027 show - clue #2: We’re going back in time, but not quite as far as the 1920s for Singin’ in the Rain. Think big hair, neon lights, and massive anthems.

Name that decade!

01/06/2026

Clue #1: We aren’t on the iPlanet from We Will Rock You anymore! We are heading to a small town where the rules are real and the internet is non-existent.

Any guesses what our 2027 show will be?

The countdown to our 2027 show starts now! 🎭

We are getting ready to reveal our next big production, and over the next few days, we will be dropping a series of (not-so-cryptic) clues. Keep your eyes peeled, the final 'mic drop' announcement will be made this Sunday!

Can you figure it out before the big reveal? Get your guessing hats on...
