“First play I ever did was 'Footloose.' I played the part of Willard when I was 16. I think I wore my drama teacher's jeans and her belt - that's how small I was. I know a lot of Willard's back story from the musical that's not explored in the film. Like he's got this whole relationship with his mama, and he sings this song "Mama Says".” ThinkingKnowsFirstsPlayWholeStoriesFilmSongTeacherDramaMusicalJeansBeltsMamaFootloose Author:Miles Teller

“My musical background in Tyler, Texas was quite outstanding. Uh, I grew up with, uh, with high school teachers who were in bands, they could play music. And we had a nine piece band there in Tyler, and I joined them when I was about, oh, 15 years old and traveled all over Texas in that band, playing for the elite oil people. Hah. And um, I was making about 50 bucks a night, and uh, it taught me, they taught me how to find my timing and to learn the songs that I wanted.” PeopleYearsPlayWantedSchoolNightSongTeacherPiecesTaughtGrewBandGrew UpHigh SchoolMusicalOilNineBackgroundsTexasElitesTimingTraveledOutstandingBucksSchool TeachersHigh School Teachers Author:Carl Gardner
