We just had a really great marketing meeting with the Footloose company that is coming to the Paramount Theatre on March 21 & 22. We thought it would be fun to get teens involved and have come up with some great ideas. First, a couple of cast members have agreed to give a dance workshop with dance students before the show on Saturday March 21 (time TBA). Any dance students who has bought a ticket to the show, are welcome to attend this free masters class taught by cast members of the national tour Footloose. To sign up for the class just call the Paramount Offices at 630-896-7676.
Second, we want to give 3 very talented high school teens their "Paramount Stage Debut", by giving them a chance to be a part of the show, with a walk on role! Here's how you can audition, to have a walk on role in Footloose appearing at the Paramount Theatre on March 21 & 22. Send in your :30 sec video clip of you dancing to a song from the show Footloose. We are looking for a student to give a great opportunity to!
