A touring rock musical at the Royal ICC
Footloose: The Musical arrived at Brisbane Showgrounds' Royal International Convention Centre in April 2026 as part of its Australian tour. Presented by DV Live, the production brought the story of Ren and a town that has banned dancing to a temporary theatre inside the Royal ICC.
The score draws on the film's songs, including Holding Out for a Hero, Let's Hear It for the Boy and Footloose. Large dance numbers and the quieter scenes between them make the production a mix of concert energy and musical storytelling. The Brisbane season opened on 24 April.
Rigging and crew for the Brisbane season
Krank'd provided rigging solutions, lighting operators and lighting crew for the season. Lighting design was by Zac Krause of Lux Creative, with our work supporting the physical rig and the operation of the show in Brisbane.
The Royal ICC setting put the supporting structure visibly above the performance, with the rig spanning the temporary theatre. Our rigging and lighting crew worked on the physical delivery of that system, while the operators carried the lighting through the performances. It brought build, operation and an established touring design together for the Brisbane run.
