Review: Mean-spiritedness feels out of step in Pittsburgh CLO's 'Footloose'

TribLIVE: When it comes to musicals, few have the abundance of up-beat, euphoric numbers that “Footloose” possesses.
In addition to its opening and closing renditions of its catchy title song ­— that exhorts you to “kick of your Sunday shoes,” there's Ren's “I Can't Stand Still,” Rusty's spirited “Let's Hear It For the Boy” and Cowboy Bob's “Still Rockin',” all of which are guaranteed to give you a serious case of the gotta-dance syndrome.
