Footloose
by Dean Pitchford, Walter Bobbie & Tom Snow
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 his reputation and many of the locals are eager to believe the worst
about the new kid. With its Oscar-nominated hit score, the celebrated film musical now bursts explosively onto the stage.

Foxfinder
by Dawn King
In a near-future-England where the ‘red beast’ is a public enemy, Samuel and Judith have had a

Will he find contamination or collaboration; denial or denunciation? This production marks the amateur premiere of this tense and haunting drama, winner of the Papatango New Writing competition 2011.
