388Griffin's review of Dirty Dancing the Musical

“Killed A Classic”

★☆☆☆☆

written by 388Griffin on 03/11/2014

I was excited to see how they adapted this for the stage. They didn't "adapt" it, the actors recreated the entire movie word for word. The acting was horrible, Johnny Castle was almost comical he was so bad. The characters had zero depth and were just impersonating the ones we are familiar with. The whole thing felt like a really bad community theater production. 

The movie projection was probably supposed to be cool and exciting, but it felt awkward and cheap. 

Also, calling this a musical is a stretch; there are only a few songs actually sang by cast members. It was all just so bad.
