A note from our ChairmanBefore the overture starts, be sure that you have enough room around you to allow for some toe tapping, because I can guarantee that tonight’s performance will certainly have you up on your feet!

This is another innovative show for EHOS, bringing ‘Footloose’ to the Broxbourne Civic Theatre for the first time, but with the extra twist of it being set in the present day.

As the Director of this show it was important for me to show you not only that EHOS can match its excellent vocals with excellent dancers, but to portray the story of parenthood, grief and love. Footloose has so much to give as a show, with such an amazing story, so sit back and let us tell it for you, and don’t be afraid to get up and do just a little bit of boogying!
