When a kitchen mishap leaves the convent in a financial bind, the surviving Little Sisters of Hoboken do the only sensible thing: throw a variety show. What follows is an evening of show-stopping numbers, tap-dancing nuns, comic confessions, and irrepressible charm. A long-running favorite that has delighted audiences for decades, Nunsense is bright, big-hearted, and packed with laughs. This student led, beloved musical comedy is a perfect way for Asbury Theatre to open its Fall season.

Join us at Woodford Theatre for our first production of our 2026-2027 Season of Radical Joy, FOOTLOOSE! The Musical!
SEPTEMBER 18 - OCTOBER 4, 2026

Footloose will run three weekends.
September 18th-20th, 25th-27th, and October 2nd-4th.
Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30pm and Sundays at 2pm.

Rated PG13.

When Ren and his mother move from Chicago to a small farming town, he is prepared for the inevitable adjustment period at his new high school. But he’s not prepared for the rigorous local edicts, including a ban on dancing instituted by the local preacher, who is determined to exercise control over the town’s youth. When the reverend’s rebellious daughter sets her sights on Ren, her roughneck boyfriend tries to sabotage Ren’s reputation, with many of the locals eager to believe the worst about the new kid. The heartfelt story that emerges pins a father longing for the son he lost against a young man aching for the father who walked out on him.

To the rockin’ rhythm of its Oscar and Tony-nominated Top 40 score, augmented with dynamic new songs, Footloose celebrates the wisdom of listening to young people while guiding them with a warm heart and open mind.

WE HOPE YOU'LL CUT FOOTLOOSE WITH US THIS FALL SEASON!
