TONIGHT: AT MILLENNIUM PARK SUMMER FILM SERIES DIRTY DANCING CAST MEMBERS PERFORM

TONIGHT, TUESDAY, AUGUST 18 AT 6:30 PM

Jay Pritzker Pavilion at Millennium Park (201 E Randolph St)

Broadway In Chicago and cast members from Dirty Dancing – The Classic Story On Stage will kick off the free movie, Dirty Dancing, with a performance of “The Time of My Life” before the Millennium Park Summer Film Series. 

ABOUT DIRTY DANCING

Dirty Dancing – The Classic Story On Stage is an unprecedented live experience, exploding with heart-pounding music, passionate romance and sensational dancing. Seen by millions across the globe, this timeless love story features the hit songs “Hungry Eyes,” “Do You Love Me?” and the heart-stopping “(I’ve Had) The Time Of My Life.” London’s Sunday Express says “This crowd-pleasing stage adaptation hits the jackpot!”

It’s the summer of 1963, and 17-year-old Frances ‘Baby’ Houseman is on vacation in New York’s Catskill Mountains with her older sister and parents. Mesmerized by the racy dance moves and pounding rhythms she discovers in the resort’s staff quarters, Baby can’t wait to be part of the scene, especially when she catches sight of Jonny Castle, the resort’s sexy dance instructor. Passions ignite and Baby’s life changes forever when she is thrown in to the deep end as Johnny’s leading lady, both on-stage and off.
