A veritable phenomenon of American pop culture, Dirty Dancing is presented in concert. The film, entirely remastered and shown in the original English version with French surtitles, is projected onto a giant screen, while three singers and five musicians perform the songs live. Immediately after the screening, the band is unleashed for a twenty-five minute afterparty with rousing renditions of the film's greatest hits, creating a total immersion in the glamour of the 1980s.
Dirty Dancing in Concert takes us back to the summer of 1963, when an innocent young girl, Baby (Jennifer Gray), is drawn into a wild affair with Johnny (Patrick Swayze), a seductive dance teacher. Through the course of the spellbinding, sensual choreography, a love story develops that has marked an entire generation. The film's score won the Oscar for Best Original Soundtrack, and the album, which stayed at #1 on the Billboard charts for 18 weeks, sold 42 million copies worldwide, making it one of the most popular albums of all time.
