An Unforgettable Story

Dirty Dancing brings us back to the summer of 1963, when 17-year- old Frances ‘Baby’ Houseman emerges from her shy, sheltered shell to discover some major life lessons, and a spectacular hidden talent for dancing. While on vacation in the Catskill Mountains, New York, with her older sister and parents, she is bored with the resort activities, but she finds her own excitement when she finds the staff of the hotel dancing at their own party. Captivated by the sensual dance moves and the infectious rhythms, Baby is keen to join the dance scene, particularly when she becomes smitten by Johnny Castle, the resort’s dance teacher. Her life is about to change forever as she is thrown in at the deep end as Johnny’s leading lady both on-stage and off, two fiercely independent young spirits from different worlds come together in what will be the most challenging and triumphant summer of their lives.
