Dirty Dancer is a theatre show at Underbelly Cowgate. Set in the summer of 1963 at Kellerman’s Resort, the performer Firlit plays every character from the film.
Dirty Dancer transports audiences to the summer of 1963 at Kellerman’s Resort, where Firlit plays every character from the film, blending audience interaction, physical storytelling, and the classic soundtrack to recreate every unforgettable moment, including “that” big lift. By unpacking the film's controversial themes and its unwavering championing of the underdog, the show seeks to reignite the cult classic’s sense of dangerous excitement, inviting audiences to dream a little, dance a lot, and have the time of their lives.
