Footloose

In the Swedish version of the musical Footloose, Måns played the role of Tommy in 2007 and 2008.
- It´s a challenge and will be a lot of fun. I´m going to play the arsehole. It will be a further education for me after "Grease". I get to learn how to act in real life and have already started practising in front of the mirror, says Måns Zelmerlöw, who plays the role of Tommy.
He also won "Let´s dance" in 2006 and he will be joined on stage by another artist with experience from both schlager and the dance competition - Anna Sahlin.
- I´ve never really applied for a musical, but in recent years I´ve felt that it would be fun to broaden my experience with dancing, acting and singing.
The third major role, Kevin Bacon´s classic Ren, is played by Peter Johansson, successful in London´s West End and currently starring in the production of "We Will Rock You".
