A Night of Dirty Dancing (Touring)

Back in 1987 a low-budget film captured the hearts of cinemagoers the world over as two relatively unknown performers – Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey – danced their way to movie immortality, and $214m at the box office.

Since then, generation after generation has continued to take the legendary production – Dirty Dancing – to their hearts.

Demand for a film sequel has swelled year upon year. Prospects of a remake have escalated during the past five years, only to be scotched in July 2015 when the producers announced they wouldn’t be taking up a multi-million dollar production grant offered towards making the film.

There’s no doubt music and dance fans are crying out for a new brand-new dose of Dirty Dancing, according to theatre show producer Michael Taylor of Easy Theatres.

“To satisfy the overwhelming demand,” says Michael, “we went on the road during the spring of 2015 with a theatre show that offered an all-new take on the classic story.

“Having enjoyed many sold-out performances as we criss-crossed the country we are now proud to announce an even more extensive tour with a larger cast commencing March 2016.”
