Loved the dancing but acting was a little brutal
by canadianKris on 2016-01-04Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - CalgaryI grew up with Dirty Dancing and am a huge fan! I went to the show with high expectations and was a little disappointed. ONLY because the acting was not very good and true to the characters. I felt like the actors hadn't actually seen the movie because they were not passionate enough when they spoke especially during the important scenes. The dancing was incredible though and spot on from the movie! The casting was done very well for the main characters of Johnny, Baby and Penny. They added a few extra scenes which was a little strange too but nonetheless the overall flow of the show was spot on! I still would see it again and recommend going!
