SLIPPERY ROCK — Slippery Rock High School will present the musical “Footloose” at 7 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday in the high school auditorium, 201 Kiester Road.

Tickets are $7 and are available at the high school office or by calling 724-794-8180.

In “Footloose,” when Ren and his mother move from Chicago to a small farming town, Ren is prepared for the adjustment to his new high school.

What he isn't prepared for are the local laws — including a ban on dancing — which are the brainchild of a local preacher bent on exercising control over the town's youths.

When the Reverend's rebellious daughter sets her heart on Ren, her boyfriend tries to sabotage Ren's reputation, and many of the locals are eager to believe the worst about the new kid.

The director is Allison Dalcamo, and the vocal director is Kevin Shields.

Les Fine is the orchestra director, and Hannah Confer is the student director.
