Dirty Dancing (Edinburgh) Theatre breaks

About the show

While cute and deceptively strong-willed Baby is on holiday in New York’s Catskill Mountains, she doesn’t fancy the resort activities and instead is keener on exploring her surroundings.

Soon, Baby stumbles upon the resort’s staff quarters as they dance the night away at a party that’s out of the ordinary. She is instantly drawn to the raunchy and passionate moves and to the brooding and handsome Jonny Castle, the resort dance instructor. Baby then finds herself as Johnny’s leading lady and as their love develops, the twists and turns of this rich story come to life in moving scenes and euphoric dances.
