The company also includes Edward Andrew Lawrence, Samantha Lea Hewes, Sarah Marie Jenkins as Wendy Jo, Blair Best, Kenny Fancoeur, Silas Moores and Alex Larson.

Footloose is described as "a story of American spirit – a carefree city kid transplanted to a conservative rural town where rock 'n roll and dancing are forbidden, who takes on the authorities, makes all the right moves, and wins the girl."

The score contains music and lyrics by Tom Snow and Dean Pitchford, with additional music by Eric Carmen, Sammy Hagar, Kenny Loggins and Jim Steinman. Songs include "Almost Paradise," "Holding Out For A Hero" and "Let's Hear It For The Boy."

The creative team also features Karl Warden (associate director/choreographer), Aaron McAllister (musical director), Charles S. Kading (scenic designer), Kurt Alger (costume designer) and Dan Efros (lighting designer).

Maine State Music Theatre is located at Pickard Theatre on the Bowdoin College Campus in Brunswick. Ticket prices range from $38 to $63 and are available through the MSMT Box Office at (207) 725-8769 or online at msmt.org.
