Footloose Arrives at FTH!

Posted on

 

Big Bad Wolf Children’s Theatre Company have arrived at the FTH for the 2019 production of Footloose from Tuesday 29th January to Saturday 2nd February.

Join us to see 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 Moore. The Reverend has convinced the town to outlaw dancing, which Ren finds unbelievable. With the help of Ariel (the 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.

NODA
National Operatic & Dramatic Association
The National Operatic and Dramatic Association (NODA) was founded in 1899 and has a membership of 2500 amateur theatre groups and 3000 individual enthusiasts throughout the UK, staging musicals, operas, plays, concerts and pantomimes in a wide variety of performing venues, ranging from the country’s leading professional theatres to village halls.
NODA is divided into eleven regions, each headed by a regional councillor who sits on the national council (the ruling body of the Association), supported by a network of regional representatives. These 180 volunteers are the vital link to the grassroots of the Association, the amateur theatre groups themselves. The Association is administered from its Headquarters in Peterborough, with knowledgeable and friendly staff able to deal with virtually any enquiry relating to amateur theatre.

NODA aims:

  • To give a shared voice to the amateur theatre sector.
  • To help amateur societies and individuals achieve the highest standards of best practice and performance.
  • To provide leadership and advice to enable amateur theatre to tackle the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century.
