Seen by millions across the globe, this worldwide smash hit tells the coming-of-age drama of Francis (aka Baby) and dance instructor Johnny.

Two fiercely independent young spirits from different worlds come together in what will be the most challenging and ultimately triumphant summer of their lives. Featuring the hit songs, Hungry Eyes, Hey Baby, Do you Love Me and the legendary (I've Had) The Time of My Life.

Differing from the popular stock character-sung musical, this dance-heavy production tells its story with the help of live singers who reside outside the main action.Break out your leotards and dance socks for this experience of a lifetime!

Ages: Suitable for ages 10+ Contains mature themes - parental discretion advised
