Dirty Dancing Stage Musical Headed to Adelaide in September

Following its current run at the Princess Theatre in Melbourne, and upcoming seasons in both Queensland (Queensland Performing Arts Centre’s Lyric Theatre) and Perth (Crown Theatre), it has today been confirmed that stage musical Dirty Dancing will have a limited season in Adelaide. Starting on September 30th at the Festival Theatre, Adelaide Festival Theatre; Dirty Dancing will be performed for a limited season.

It’s the summer of 1963, and 17 year old “Baby” Houseman is about to learn some major lessons in life as well as a thing or two about dancing. On holiday in New York’s Catskill Mountains with her older sister and parents, Baby shows little interest in the resort activities, and instead discovers her own entertainment when she stumbles upon the staff quarters when an all-night dance party is in full swing. Mesmerised by the raunchy dance moves and the pounding rhythms, Baby can’t wait to be part of the scene, especially when she catches sight of Johnny Castle the resort dance instructor. Baby’s 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 with breathtaking consequences.

I’m thrilled to bring this wonderful new production of Dirty Dancing to Adelaide for the first time ever. The stage musical gives audiences the chance to hear the songs from the hit film performed live and to experience the breathtaking dance routines. People have flocked to it, breaking records all around the world. Now, ten years after the World Premiere in Sydney, it returns home to Australia where the magic began with a sensational new cast, and audiences can again have the Time Of Their Lives.
