The cinematic vehicle that flung Patrick Swayze to stardom will be forever remembered as a classic Hollywood romance. This classic has been brought to the stage without losing any of its exuberant charm or moving storytelling.
The intelligent, well behaved and ultimately college-bound Frances Houseman (known as Baby) is on holiday with her family, when she discovers an underground world of dirty dancing and sensuous R & B rhythms. The catalyst for Baby’s discovery is Johnny Castle, the holiday resort’s dance instructor. As their love develops, the twists and turns of this rich story come to life in moving scenes and euphoric dances.
If you have seen the legendary 1987 film and already know this classic coming of age drama, then you will know exactly what to expect from the story line. What you will not expect, however, is the immensely impressive way that this story is brought to life on the big stage, with new scenes, perfectly delivered musical numbers and exquisitely choreographed dance. The sensational soundtrack of the film is deployed expertly to tell this wonderful tale.
