🚐 Footloose & Virginia Highlands Festival

Join us on Saturday, July 29, 2023, as we travel to Abingdon, VA, to visit The Virginia Highlands Festival and then see the matinee of Footloose at the historic Barter Theatre – the state theatre of Virginia.
You can shop for unique handcrafted items with the Arts & Crafts exhibitors at the festival. There will be time for lunch (on your own). Our matinee at the Barter is the high-energy musical based on the 80’s movie. When Ren and his mother leave Chicago and move to the rural community of Belmont, Ren finds himself at odds with most everyone, including the powerful Reverend Moore. As a result of a recent tragedy, Moore has convinced the town fathers to outlaw dancing. With the help of Ariel (Moore’s daughter) and Willard (his new friend), Ren convinces the Reverend to let teenagers dance again, and in the process, helps to heal the whole town.
