Footloose The Musical (Reviewed)


  • The Concourse Theatre, Chatswood (map)

#sydney REVIEW – Footloose the Musical by PACA Productions at The Concourse Theatre, Chatswood.

I recently attended this production with Livia @chamellephoto, and we had such a fun night! Inspired by the iconic 80s movie, Footloose the Musical lit up the stage with great nostalgia and high energy.

This fresh PACA production did not disappoint, with all the songs we know and love: Holding Out for a Hero, Almost Paradise, Let’s Hear It for the Boy and of course Footloose.

What truly stood out was the talent of this young cast and their dance move!. Emily Van Ameyde (Ariel Moore), Cass Lobb (Rusty), Sophia Duncan (Wendy Jo), and Piper Escott (Urleen) delivered powerful vocals, while Cameron Mayhem (Ren McCormack) and Miles Farrell (Willard Hewitt) wowed with impressive dance moves, supported by a strong and energetic ensemble.

It’s always inspiring to see such great performances from young actors and the energy, passion and talent on stage had the audience cheering and dancing in their seats!

I now wish Miss had seen this production, but I’ll be sure to take her to PACA’s next show, &Juliet, during the Spring holidays!

Footloose the Musical by PACA is showing now until Saturday 30th August 2025 at @theconcoursechatswood.
