Looking for Teens for "Footloose" The Musical

Mezzo-Soprano, Pop. Ariel is smart; she understands the rules of the different worlds she moves between, and, in each situation, she plays her part brilliantly. When she’s in her father’s presence, for instance, she is buttoned-up and demure; with Chuck, she burns off all her unexpressed, explosive energy with raucous, thrill-seeking behavior. Ariel loves to laugh - with Chuck, with her girlfriends and, eventually, with Ren

Any actor playing Ren has not only got to be able to sing and dance and act - he must also be witty. After all, Ren is a cut-up, a joker who enjoys a good time (which is why his pals are upset to find he’s leaving in the opening number). Lately, though, his fun-loving attitude has taken on a tone of desperation, as he tries too hard to convince the world - and himself - that his father’ desertion hasn’t wounded him as deeply as it has.

Willard is not dumb; he is a gentle soul with quick fists, which are his defense against a world that he often has trouble comprehending. Willard just hasn’t had anyone come along to puncture that macho belligerence - until Ren arrives. After that, the humor in the character of Willard derives from his gradual, innocent and giddy discovery of the new worlds that Ren opens up to him.

Rusty may come off as sassy and self-assured, but, in many ways, she is the most deeply romantic character in Footloose. She truly believes that she and Willard were meant to be together, but they’re both so inept about expressing themselves that it takes Ren - and a little time on the dance floor - to ultimately bring that about.
