On Your Feet at Littleton Town Hall Arts Center – Season 42 Finale

The Littleton Town Hall Arts Center presents On Your Feet, the musical biography that tells the love story of Gloria and Emilio Estefan. As the finale of the theater’s 42nd season, this production illustrates what can happen when you believe in yourself and reach for the stars.

This musical follows the true story of Gloria and Emilio Estefan, a young couple from Cuba who took the world by storm with their fusion of Latin rhythms and Billboard Top 100 pop songs. Through their musical journey, audiences see how the Estefans brought Cuban-infused music into the mainstream and established their place among influential music creators.

The production features beloved Estefan songs including “Rhythm is Gonna Get You,” “Conga,” “Coming Out of the Dark,” “Reach,” and other chart-topping hits. These songs serve as the foundation for a story that celebrates musical innovation and the immigrant experience in America.

This musical delivers energetic performances while capturing the essence of the American Dream through two artists who overcame obstacles to achieve success. From their beginnings in Miami’s music scene to performing on international stages, the story presents themes of perseverance, passion, and music’s power to connect people across cultures.

Audiences experience Latin rhythms blended with contemporary pop sounds in this theatrical production. The musical explores the couple’s journey through personal struggles, including Gloria’s serious bus accident and recovery, while showing the family bonds and professional partnership that sustained them through decades in the music industry.

The choreography brings Miami’s dance culture to life, while vocal performances capture the emotion and energy of the Estefans’ music. The story covers their early days with the Miami Sound Machine, their breakthrough into English-language markets, and their evolution into artists who opened doors for other Latin musicians.

Beyond the music, this biographical musical examines a marriage that survived the pressures of fame while maintaining connections to Cuban heritage and family values. It’s a story of artistic integrity, cultural bridge-building, and staying true to one’s roots while pursuing global success.

The theater’s intimate setting allows audiences to experience every beat and emotion as part of the Estefans’ journey. This season finale combines compelling storytelling, strong performances, and live theater’s ability to connect with audiences.

The musical celebrates Latin rhythms, family dynamics, and themes about achieving goals through determination and love. On Your Feet at the Littleton Town Hall Arts Center presents the Estefans’ story through music that defined a generation and continues to resonate with audiences today.
