It’s going to have folks dancing dirty in the aisles when the tour starts next month. Know the story? In the summer of 1963, 17-year-old Frances “Baby” Houseman is on holiday with her rich family at Kellerman’s, a resort in the Catskill Mountains.
Baby is the younger of two daughters, and plans to attend college to study economics in underdeveloped countries and then enter the Peace Corps.
Her dad, Jake, is a doctor and friend of Max Kellerman, the resort proprietor.
Baby is befriended by Max’s grandson, Neil.
Baby develops a crush on the resort’s dance instructor, Johnny Castle — in the move he was played by the unforgettable Patrick Swayze.
Johnny is the leader of the resort’s working-class entertainment staff.
Baby encounters Johnny’s cousin Billy on a walk through the resort grounds, and helps him carry watermelons to the staff quarters.
The staff hold secret after-hours parties in their quarters, and Baby is surprised by the “dirty dancing” that then takes place.
Intrigued, Baby receives a brief, impromptu dance lesson from Johnny.
And the rest of the tale is waiting for you when you see the show!
This is a brilliant night of unforgettable songs, great dance routines and a fabulous story, A Night of Dirty Dancing is not to be missed.
