Saw this in Blackpool this afternoon and not really knowing what to expect after hearing about the scaling down for the tour and the use of recordings, and although I can't base it on previous productions as I havnt seen it before I'm pleased to say I enjoyed it.
Slight apprehension beforehand, As Dirty Dancing probably draws the same crowd as Mama Mia, and having experienced that on a Saturday night in Blackpool that wasn't something I wanted to repeat as a bit of a purist. But om the whole a well behaved audience.
Johnny is played by the guy who played Nick Massey on the Jersey Boys tour, and found it amusing that it was a bit like Nick had got a summer job away from the four seasons working as a Dancer, as the accent and look were almost identical.
Overall a fun afternoon at the theatre and another show ticked off the list.
