Dirty Dancing Tickets

I got an email advertising 50% Dirty Dancing tickets at The Pantages. They wanted me to make clear that I was just posting this as a fan (they suggested devoted fan, but really I'm not that devoted, so I stopped at fan) and am in no way affiliated with The Pantages, BroadwayLA, Nederlander, Dirty Dancing or anyone else, don't tell my husband. I just thought if any of you were thinking of going you might want to take advantage of this deal.

So here it is

Hope some of you can use it. It is a really fun show. If you go, and want to make a night of it, have dinner at Cafe Wa s before or go for drinks after. Here's my post on it. It's just around the corner from The Pantages. I love it there, but I am also just a fan, and again not devoted or affilliated.

Dirty Dancing at The Pantages

I had no idea there were trekie type fans of Dirty Dancing, but they were in force at the Dirty Dancing show at The Pantages here in Los Angles last night. When the Overture started the house went crazy. I don't think I've ever been at a show were the crowd started screaming, and this was before a single actor took the stage.
I did like the show. They added a whole piece about the civil rights movement, that I don't remember in the film. The cast was really impressive. Though the Johnny character seemed to be struggling with the accent, especially when he said the word hand. I think he is English. Still he was amazing in the dance sequences and shirtless often enough that you really didn't care how he said hand.
It might have been a wee bit long, but I was the only one who seem to notice. All in all a great show. If you go prepare yourself for the final scene when Johnny says the famous line "Nobody puts baby in the corner" The house loses their collective minds. Their on their feet and singing along.
