Details of Dirty Dancing and the Ticket Luck value
Based on the evergreen movie about dance, Dirt Dancing is a must-watch musical for all the theatre lovers. This amazingly presented love story will entertain you with its universal plot, superb performances, and well-crafted songs. Dirty Dancing was that low budget movie which came out to be a massive hit in its time. Whether you talk about the movie as a whole or just its music, every little aspect of the movie was well conceived and then suitably well rewarded as well. The massive success of the movie also became evident when the movie claimed a Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo and a Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song. Following the huge success of the movie, several alternative versions of the movie also surfaced. But before that, Dirty Dancing's original soundtrack was released on CD, which also came out to be nothing but successful. In fact the album went 2x Platinum with quite a few singles from the album also winning either the Grammy or the Golden Globe Awards.
In 1988, a live concert tour was also launched that celebrated the iconic tunes of the original movie. The concert featured Eric Carmen and Bill Medley, and concluded after 3 months with performances that spanned over 90 cities. Also in 1988, a Television series that was based on the series was also launched, but it didn't garner many views, so it was cancelled only after few episodes. In 2004, another instalment to the movie franchise emerged as a prequel of the movie and was titled Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights. This instalment was directed by Guy Ferland, and starred Romola Garai and Diego Luna. The movie also starred the protagonist of the original movie, Patrick Swayze as the Dance Class Teacher.
Of all the alternate media forms in which the movies appeared, Dirty Dancing: The Classic Story on Stage is the most successful after the original movie. The movie was adapted into a musical back in 2004 in Australia. The musical was produced by Jacobsen Entertainment with the total cost of $ 6.5 Million. Eleanor Bergstein wrote the musical, while as far as the music is concerned, it took the original musical scores from the movie. Apart from that, the musical also featured a few extra scenes. The music for the musical was directed by none other than the man who composed the music for the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Chong Lim. The original cast of the musical starred Kym Valentine who portrayed the role of Baby, while the role of Johnny was played by Josef Brown of the Sydney Dance Company. Even though the musical garnered mixed reviews from most of the critics, but commercially; it just outdid itself.
Dirty Dancing the musical run for six months, and during that time, it managed to sell well over 200,000 tickets. Looking the kind of success the musical enjoyed in Australia, several productions of the musical opened it other countries as well. One of these was in Germany, where musical also managed to have its successful sell out performance run. The musical opened at the London's West End on October 23, 2006 at the Aldwych Theatre. The musical set a record there by pre selling the tickets and earning £6 million. As of the 2008, the musical has entertained more than 350,000 theatre goers through its West End run. At West End, the musical sold out in advance for most of the time and by the end of it, the musical managed to earn a total of £40 million. In the original West End production, Josef Brown from the Australian production reprised his role of Johnny Castle, while as for the role of Baby, Georgina Rich made her theatrical debut with that role. The west end's successful performance run finally came to an end in April, 2009 and on the other hand a production of the musical also opened in Utrecht Netherland in March 2008.
