I'm going into high school next year and I heard that Footloose is going to be the musical my school will perform. I want to be in it, but I don't know what character I want to play. I am basically a new performer, and I wasn't sure which part I would do best at. I want a singing part, but I'm not sure if I want to sing a solo or just be part of a group song. And of course, I want a role with quite a few lines. Right now, I am debating between Rusty, Wendy Jo, Urleen, and Irene. If you have any ideas to help me decide or have any tips, please leave a comment. I'll be checking in soon!
Thank you!

Colonie Youth Theater will be putting on Footloose as this years summer musical. This is my first year with CYT, and since alot of my friends auditioned for it last year and we doing it again this year, i took a crack at it. My main focus on a role that i wanted was Chuck Cranston, i practiced "The Girl Gets Around" and i did very well. On the day of the audition, for my audition song i sand "No More" from Into the Woods; the musical my high school will be performing next week from today, with me as the role of the Baker. Back on track, so i sang my song, and i got a call-back. We had to do a dance that we learned there, and perform it in small groups. then we were called up in small groups to learn songs from Footloose. I was called up to sing "The Girl Gets Around" (Chuck's Song) and "I Confess" (Reverend Shaw Moore's Song). And finally, we were called up to read lines for certain people. I read for Chuck, Rev. Moore, and Willard. So i thought to myself, "aight, im either gettin Chuck or the Reverend". So i left the community center exhausted, and was told that we'd be emailed about what parts we were given in about a week. So two days later, i get a message on facebook from the director, and asked if i would like the role of Rev. Shaw Moore. I greatly accepted. oh man. this is gonna be a great show.
anyone got any tips for the role? This will be my 5th theater show in all (other shows: Little Shop of Horrors as the voice of Audrey II, High School Musical the Musical as Basketball Team, Into the Woods as the Baker, and soon to be part of the cast of Murder's in the Heir) and i still consider myself as a mediocre actor.

this spring my high school decided to put on Footloose for the first time. it's only my first year in high school and i was kinda nervous about going out for a role. as a freshman, i doubted i'd even get ensemble! but i did get a part as a high school student, and it rocks! i appear in the opening number, 'somebody's eyes', 'still rockin'/bar scene, 'lets hear it for the boy', 'i'm free/heaven help me', the town council scene, the finale, and also two random hallway scenes. it's alot of high energy dancing and singing. the other enseble role is a parishoner/adult. they don't do any dancing besides the finale, and they mostly just sing. so to anyone who doesn't get a lead role- don't be discouraged! ensemble members are still a big part of the show, and are treated equally. your dance moves will impress more than a dull speaking part would. opening night is just 6 days away- wish us luck! feel free to e-mail me with any Footloose questions @ jennab1017@aol.com. much <3, high school student

Yet another person asking for the script, although the thing is our Musical Theater program at my school has already purchased the rights to the script. The thing is we were sent the brand new script, which in our opinion blows compared to the old one. Almost all of the emotional drama that could come from scenes with Shaw or Ren's Uncle Wes is killed and we'd appreciate it if we could use the old script. So is it possible that someone could please e-mail the script if they have it. It would be even better if you could e-mail the old sheet music as well. Just feels like we were conned into paying for the rights to something we didn't want.

Ariel is one of the main characters in Footloose as your probably aware! She is the daughter of the Reverend and has had issues with her father ever since her brother died in a car crash. It is for this reason that Ariel chooses to rebel against her father hooking up with Chuck the town's bad boy (or so to speak). Are you a good dancer? Ariel does dance especially in "Hero" which is her main song. I'm not sure where you can get a script but i'm sure your director will give you one. The director will also decide if there is a kiss. In my production it wasn't till the final night that the people who played Ariel and Ren kissed. I hope this has helped a little and i wish you all the best for your production. :-)

As for the kiss... in our production we don't, the script doesn't say to so it's up to your director. It doesn't really fit the scene at the end as we just hug.

Ren and Ariel do kiss at the end of Almost Paradise.
In our production, we removed a lot of the physicality between Ariel and Chuck, but left the Ren/Ariel things like embraces and the kiss.
The actors rehearsed it as a stage kiss, with their hands covering the fact that they didn't really kiss. But when it came closer to performance time, they decided to do a real kiss. It got some yells and catcalls from the audience. :)

I am directing Footloose at the high school where I teach, and it's less than a month till opening night now! We are all working hard and are very excited.
Reading through the comments, I found a similar thread to some of them. Yes, there are a lot of smaller parts in Footloose. I see this as a great thing - more people can get involved! But it has been a bit of hassle for us.. tough to get so many people to be able to rehearse 3-4 times a week, and tough to convince lots of people that they are an integral part of the show.
There are plenty of students who are taking their parts and making the most of them. They know any part is important and that it's fun to be part of a team. I just wish everyone could have that outlook.
No matter what part you get, be happy that you're involved in such an awesome thing. Musicals are very difficult and costly to put on. Very few high schools in my province put them on. Be proud of your role, no matter what it is, and do the best that you can. A positive attitude will help make your experience memorable.

Hi everybody! I get so excited reading all of your "Footloose" ; Yaks! I am currently directing the show at a high school in PA. I would like to answer some of your questions regarding the show. I don't claim to know everything about musical theater, but I do believe I've been trained by THE BEST. In regards to Jeter and Irene--let's face it--these aren't the biggest parts in the show. Irene is only in Act 2 Scene 1. Jeter is a slightly bigger part, being that he is one of Ren's friends. Depending on the director, Jeter can be found in most scenes. However, he doesn't have very many lines. The message I have for you guys is this: though you may not have the lead role, feel happy with yourselves! You're a part of a special team effort. Without you, the show will not be the same. Be the best Irene/Jeter you can be! In regards to Cowboy Bob's mom--Honey, we all want our children to get the lead role. This just isn't possible. Though your son is upset, try to make him understand that he is important in his own way. The problem with parents these days is that they jump to blame the teacher/director (or ANYONE ELSE) instead of seizing the opportunity to instill valuable morals in their children. Tell your son he is part of a team. As you know, there is no "I" in team. Finally, at no point in the musical does the script call for Rusty and Willard to kiss. Sorry to all of you hopeless romantics!

I know what school you're from, and I'm going to tell you somethihg. #1: Trust your director. She would never choose a show that doesn't suit her students. #2: Always give new things a try before worrying/criticizing . #3: There are just as many (IF NOT MORE) girl parts in Footloose the musical than guy parts. Trust your director, ok? :)

I just found out today that we are doing Footloose for our spring musical. I am really excited about it but some of the other studients are upset about it because there is alot of guy parts and we dont have alot of guys and there is alot of dancing. We go to a small school so i think that is one of the problems. I think we will be fine no matter what happens. We did Bye Bye Birdie last year and i really had alot of fun doing it. I hope it will be the same or even better. We just got our auditorum redone this summer so i think that the show will be done really great in it.

i as one of many of my fellow pupils who recently saw footloose on a trip to london thought it was amazing. the songs were up beat and made everyone have a smile on their face. even our boring teachers were dancing along to 'holding out for a hero' that was shocking to see. the lighting, dancing and the actors voices were outstanding. i am now addicted to this play and already have bought my tickets for the next performance. bravo to jonny shentall who was an understudy but gave a great performance as ren.

I was the youngest person with an actual part, and I got to meet tons of extraordinary people I would have never met if I hadn't participated in this show. I definitely recommend this show to anyone who's interested in participating in "Footloose.&quo t;

I absolutely love this musical!! I had the privelege of playing Ariel in my theater's production of Footloose this past summer. I believe it was one of my favorite parts I've ever played!! The story line is not as powerful as it should be, but the music is exquisite. Great harmonies, sometimes dificult, but they sounded real good once we finally got them. I don't think it's possible to not have fun doing this show. It didn't matter if we sounded like we should be on broadway, or we were failing miserably at everything, I ALWAYS had fun during the time I was doing this shows. Being Ariel was amazing and I had an awesome Ren to work with. I highly encourage anyone looking for just a fun musical to "cut loose" to, pick this one. You won't regret it.

This reveiw of footloose, out of all the others that I found, was the most helpful. My school is doing Footloose for our Year End Studies (Y.E.S. plan). As stage manager (and part of my independent studies in the pre-production of a play) it is my job to fully research footloose. Footloose either got wonderful reveiws or horrible ones. None of them really helped to specify why it was great or why it was horrible. Yours was amazing. Does anyone have any suggestions for the behind-the-scenes work on this musical....or does anyone have any rehersal/production reports they could foward me?

Hey guys I am also playing Wendy JO in my high schools production of footloose I beyond love he character some of the stuff i do makes me laugh like my director gives me so much room to improve my lines like the hula burger line for me is now"I will have a hula burger double patty cheese melt extra mayo no tomatoes and order of chilli fries, a large side of onion rings dont forget the ketchup, a 3 scoop chocolate sundae with lots of hot fudge and caramel and ohh yeah a diet coke" It is beyond amazing for the others just try to embrace how fun this character isshe is really the one who throws a comment in to be cool and then kinda realizes how dumb she is so I say have fun good luck to all
and for the belting question I have a belt when i use it i can fill an auditorium no mic but it can be bad if it is done incorrectly you cannot strees your range and only do what is comfortable or you will get nods my choreographer got them because they used to make her belt to a high range she has a body mic now so just have fun and embody the charcters at auditions
and everyone come see it if you are around easton massahusetts it is amazing march 9 10 11 and 12 at 7 tickets at door available dont miss it

being black in theater is sort of hard, but you can make it work. If you fit the part it shouldnt matter what race you are. My best friend is black and in this show she is playing Ren's mother. In past shows she has played Medea in Medea, a bird-girl in Seussical, and shes playing titania in a midsummer nights dream. in most shows race shouldnt be an issue (except for those select few like Aida and Miss Saigon)... i dont know where you currently are, but your drama teacher is wrong, maybe you should move to a place where either you're not the only black person, or you would feel more comfortable.

Rusty and Willard kissing is not in my script!
My school is doing footloose in November, and I am playing Ethel, yeah Ethel. I was disappointed at first, because I blew my director away, she even said I did, but, after our read-through yesterday, I think the part will be fun, even though there are only about 5 people that got parts that fit them. It looks like a fun show, and people know it, unlike the one we did last year, "Once on this Island" which I wasn't in.

My school just had auditions for Footloose and I REALLY wanted to play Rusty! The audition song was Almost Paradise, so I sang that and also asked if I could sing a bit of Let's Hear it for the Boy acappella. The director said sure, and I just gave it my all! The cast list was posted two days ago and guess who's Rusty! Me! I think the director was impressed that I had prpared one of Rusty's songs and it made me stand out from the other girls. So that's my advice to you! Good Luck, Adrienne!!!!!

Lis,
Thankyou so much for your help! I've been working on "strutting my stuff" and I'm getting the hang of it.
Here's another question...do you (or anybody else) have any clue as to when the scene is that Rusty and Willard kiss? I've read my script front to back and there aren't many situations between them that seem "kiss appropriate". The only one I can think of is the scene in the end where Willard is talking about wearing his dad's suit and getting a corsage, and he says they can dance...a little help please? lol

Man, I was really hoping to be cast as Rusty, as I see she has a song & a pretty big part- and I was sure I'd get it, as I was the only one who read the part in auditions, but alas, I got Urleen... I am glad to be a part of this musical, and I am hoping that it will be great. Who knows, maybe there's still a chance that I can be Rusty (not)!! :P -sigh-

Me again...in our production, we edited some of the language in the script to make it cleaner for family audiences. We also had to cut the entire song "The Girl Gets Around" (boo-hoo) because our director felt it was too risque. The script is actually pretty easy to adapt to a more PG audience, though.

Amanda,
I was in Footloose two years ago as Ariel and one of my best friends played Rusty. The biggest challenge she faced was capturing Rusty's spunky sense of self-confidence. As you go through the script, notice that the ONLY uncertainty in Rusty's life is caused by Willard's inability to express his feelings toward her...and even that doesn't worry her too much. So when you're onstage, own it, strut your stuff, and pleeeeze don't hold anything back on "Let's Hear It For the Boy!"

To everyone who needs a copy of the Footloose script, it is available at the NYPL of the Performing Arts on 64th Street in NYC. Also, if you belong to a Perf Arts college with a substantial library, chances are your school already has one or knows the resident Theatre Queen who can get one! Good luck to all of you!

I'm cast as WEndy Jo in our local theatre company production of footloose and I see her as shy about boys, but gets caught up in Urleens enthusiasm over Ren, she's actually quite intelligent (see burger blast scene). Her and Urleen are younger than Rusty and Ariel and don't really have the boy experiance they do. So basically she's shy and smart but secretly would love to have the confidence the others have with boys.

At first, I wanted Vi but as I got into it, I realized that Rusty is just so much more fun than Vi (or any adult) would ever be. Plus, Willard is the awesomest character ever onstage and Rusty gets to be his girl. I'm still clinically depressed that its over. Anyways, our school got all standing ovations and everyone, literally everyone, loved it. It's a great musical.

Im so annoyed right now with our director of the plays at my school. We are doing footloose this spring and the audition process has been going on since January. We need to have one more call back before he posts the list but for the past three weeks he's either had to cancel or it snowed and we didnt have school. A lot of people are stressing out cause the opening night is in 49 days. Some people just dont think this play isn't supposed to happen for a reason. Im really mad that the practices keep getting cancel cause this is the first time that i ever got a call back and the first time I really feel like I have a chance of getting a part. I know the part of Ariel is between me and another girl but I have a feeling she will get it because shes a senior and its her last play. And I know I am so much better than her and I would do a better job!

I think that to get a leading role you should definitely hone your dancing skills (obviously dancing is an integral part of the show) and have a strong audition song. If there's a vocal director at your school, you can probably approach him/her about choosing a song that will best showcase your voice. Most importantly, just be confident in your own abilities and let your strong qualities shine through to the directors during auditions. Break a leg!!

However, I must say (a) the slow songs (Learning to be Silent, Can You Find it in YOur Heart) are the most emotional songs in our production and my most favorite. Also, our version of "Hero" features many, many moving and flashing lights with the entire ensemble washed in green geled lights. Not to mention "The Girl Gets Around" with the provoctive choreography will surely make the audieance want more.

Kelley,
If you dont want to have a huge part because you are fairly young but you do still want a part, then i suggest either Urleen or Wendy Jo. They are really cute funny parts and get a lot of laughs. They have a song where they both sing in a trio with Rusty and quite a few lines solo. ('Somebody's Eyes') They also 2 sing short somebody's eyes reprises (for scene changes etc.) and they sing with Ariel and Rusty in 'Holding out for a Hero' which is a great song. They have a few really cute lines and also sing in the trio in the opening number and closing number. Hope this gives you a little bit of help, post on here again and ask if you want some more info (eg. more on their script and lyrics etc.)

I was just in a musical, Once Upon A Mattress, and two directors saw the show. They both requested I audition for their musical coming up, Footloose and guarenteed me a part.
Now I think it's an open audition, where you just go in, sing, dance, and they give you a part based on that, but what part should I hope for?
I know Ren is the lead guy, so I'd like that role a lot, but Rev. Moore has more solos...at least from the sites that I've seen....

Hey Eric, congrats on getting Shaw Moore! I agree with you on your view about Shaw and the other adults. We just finished our production of Footloose just yesterday! I protrayed Vi Moore, Shaw's wife. I beleive that Shaw and Vi, if the charecters are protrayed well, can be very importiant charecters that leave a strong impact on the audience. Put your heart into your charecter and if your song makes you cry a little, go for it!
And if anyone wants to talk Footloose, IM me at: ChoirGeekAtHeart. I love to hear from other people who have put on musicals we have produced. ^.^

Best to learn early that theatre is very political-just because
you're the most talented, does not mean you'll get the best part. If you love the business enough, you'll stay with it. If not-get out before it breaks your heart. Either way-good luck!

Eric, Rev. Shaw is an awesome part. Embrace it and be awesome. The audience's emotions are most with him. Allow them to understand your character. You want them to be upset with you yet sympathetic becuase of your pain. And yes, those songs are tear jerkers...take advantage of them!

My teacher said that she's a rollerskating waitress, but I was wondering if anyone has some more information about the part or things I might want to prepare for it. Could she have a Jersey accent? Does she chew gum? Should I practice roller skating? All comments are welcome. My email is thought_is_art@yahoo .com

This is a reply to Kyndle's note about Urleen.
Hey Kyndle,
I was just cast as Urleen as well and I am (unlike you) absolutely thrilled to have a principle role. Anyway. Urleen is one of Ariel's friends and doesnt have a HUGE part but does have a few speaking lines and a few singing lines as well. She is considered a principle role so (i dont have my script either) I am pretty sure she does have a substantial part. She is aparently a little sex obsessed at times (this is what i have heard) and quite mature. I know that you desperately wanted Ariel but I am sure eventually you will enjoy the part of Urleen alot and your director will see that from t he talent you display playing Urleen, that he should have cast you for Ariel anyway. Maybe next time.
Congratulations and I hope this helpes you a little.
Have fun
From Anna~

Hey yall...
I go to college and we are currently putting on FOOTLOOSE where I am playing Rusty. My advice for anyone auditioning for the role of Rusty is to be quirky, fun, outgoing, and smart. Ariel is more of the bookworm, but Rusty has a lot more going on in her head than Wendy Jo, who is clueless and the follower of the group, and Urlene is the sex- pot of the group who is that girl we all knew in high school who acted mature and looked older than everyone else. Willard is a really fun character, good at heart, respects his mama, gets his hands dirty and does all the chores, and is shy and polite. A nice Southern drawl would be a good touch to his character if you can pull it off well...
Aight! Hope the auditions go well.. (and if you are playing Rusty, be careful with her notes, the belting is extreme, drink lots of water haha)

I think that the part of Reverand Shaw is a great part! I played it last summer and it was really fun and had some character challange to it. And its perfect for astrong voice but i would say the next best part would probally be ren but i'm sure tons are people will be thinking the same way!

In May I will audition for Footloose. Now I love the music, seen the movie once and I haven't read the script. Anybody have one, or where I can get one. Also I have a strong voice and don't know what part is better Ren, Willard, or Cranston?
My school just did a production of Footloose and I was Chuck. Chuck is a fun role but I think Willard is great too because Mama Says I think is a more fun song. Willard is not "the lead" but it is the 2nd lead so that is probably the best. Chuck is a good role if you want a supporting role but not a HUGE role. Chuck is also fun because sometimes it's more fun to be the bad guy.
Ren is probably my last choice to pick. It isn't always as fun to be the "main" character, the romantic, debonair hero as it is to be the 2nd lead, for example, Willard. He has a sheepish but fun personality and is funnier than Ren, in my opinion.
Willard is my #1 choice for you, Chuck is my #2 for you, and Ren last.
Don't go for Reverend Moore, he isn't a fun character, my friend in my school played Reverend Moore and he said it was a stifling role.

Hey. Cool review. I'm from St. John's, Newfoundland (CANADA) and my school just did a performance of FOOTLOOSE. I haven't seen the movie before, but it was so much better than what I had expected it to be! HEHE. That play is amazing! My school (Bishops College) has some really talented actors! Also, it's really cool to know everyone who is in the play. Brings it closer to home! I've got all the songs stuck in my head now! Everybody cut loose!!!

Yes, I'm a little nervous about all this but we're rehearsing until May. Just one question though, how is Rusty really like? In some scenes she's all happy go lucky and cheery but then in some others, she's so exasperated and annoyed. I really wanna know her character better since Rusty is kind of a hard character to play.

Im a female, i dont have an exceptionally high pitched voice but i can still sing well and i love to sing. i really want a solo! I am a senior. our school is small and doesnt have that much interest in theater so i should have a pretty good shot at getting a part hopefully! I havent done that much acting but i will be totally committed to it. I really like "rusty" but i dont know if i should just go for wendy jo or urleen. Will those parts still be fun even though they dont have any solos?

Why are all you guys complaining about Betty Blast? I have had so much fun being Betty, a crazy old lady. This part can be huge if you want it to! I mean Footloose has loads of dancing and singing teenagers, but only one loud, rollerskating, redneck, senior citizen!

I just finished my footloose career last night. I got to experience the play from all angles. I played the part of Betty Blast, was an assistant director, as well a stage manager. I would just like to say I had the time of my life. It was a blast. There's nothing like the rush you get when performing in front of a live audience.

We had to switch shows from West Side Story to Footloose, and I'd like to get a jump start on reading the script to see if I would want to audition for Rusty or Ariel. The thing is with West Side Story the movie musical is very similar character and scene wise. However, after reading the synopisis in the CD cover, I see the broadway musical is VERY different from the 80's cult classic film. I was told by our choreographer that a script is available on some fan page on-line, but after searching all over the internet for a few hours now, I still haven't found this specific page. If anyone knows where it is, can you please e-mail me with the address. Thank you! By the way, everyone should come Footloose at the Aiken(South Carolina) Community Playhouse in October for three weekends, starting the second weekend in October. It's going to fabulous, not to mention it's the first play in the new multi-million dollar playhouse! Come see it!

u guys have no idea how much fun the show is. i assume ya'll are in high school, me too...we were the third amateur company to get the rights, and we were so excited. the best part of the show is that it's high school kids acting as high school kids, people that saw the broadway show and saw ours said ours was just as good if not better because of that one fact. the music is awesome, the dancing was amazing, and the friendships that were created i know will last a lifetime. just let the show take over and u will certainly get into it. The energy that the show creates gives u such a high, we do a feeder school show for the local middle schools around us, they were at the edge of their seats for the whole thing, even the slower parts of the show. granted, we had the PERFECT cast, our ren and ariel, shaw and vi, they were all awesome....so yeah, ive got to tell you, its a blast. i just cant stop talking about it, it was amazing. have fun with it.

They list the full production, cast, and scene info . . . there aren't too many pictures, but if you scroll to the links on the bottom of the page, you'll find buttons for a production photo, and the Playbill cover.
There are also some Footloose Web sites out there. Check out http://nav.webring.org /cgi-bin/navcgi?ring=
