Masterworks Broadway Releases Dirty Dancing Cast Recording

Masterworks Broadway has released the original cast recording of the musical Dirty Dancing – The Classic Story on Stage.

The musical, based on the hit 1987 film, is playing in London and currently making its U.S. premiere at Chicago’s Cadillac Palace Theatre, before making national tour stops in Los Angeles and Boston. The musical is penned by Eleanor Bergstein, the film’s screenwriter, and directed by James Powell, with choreography by Kate Champion. The show’s score includes the Oscar-winning song “(I’ve Had) the Time of My Life.”

Dirty Dancing tells the story of Frances “Baby” Houseman, a doctor’s daughter, who falls for Johnny Castle, a talented, headstrong dancer from the wrong side of the tracks, while at the Catskills resort owned by her parents.
