    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 is the brain child 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. With its Oscar nominated hit score, the celebrated musical now bursts explosively onto the Circle Stage. This show is directed by Russell Grant.

    Helpful Information: Thursday night is discount night with all tickets sold for $10.

    Note: This show is rated PG-13.

        Great energy in this cast of teens and twens. Very enjoyable production, even though the plot is kind of lame. Overall, the stage production is much better than the movie!

        There are some amazingly talented people in this cast. The actor who portrays Ren is certainly a triple threat and Rusty absolutely steals the show with great comedic timing and a splendid voice. The script itself is lacking and the show has far too many poignant moments. However, it is a fun show with some great numbers, particularly "Mama Says." Collapse
