Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Dinner theaters are high on our list of favorite places to visit on our travel schedule. Recently the production of “Footloose” at the Chanhassen Dinner Theatre was our destination.

This theater is highly rated for its productions, offering Broadway productions. The musical “Footloose” began production in the spring and has recently been extended to spring of 2023.

The high energy of young people in the cast and the message it offers will make it a favorite of many. We have planned a return visit.
