Dirty Dancing plus Hits of the 1980’s

You’ll have the time of your life when the iconic 80’s film Dirty Dancing comes to life on the big screen in the Kelvin Grove State College Auditorium on Friday, June 9, 2023.    

Get your friends and family together for a fun night out and relive the movie and music magic of one of the most memorable movies of the past 30+ years on the big screen, and hear the TOSAQ Christie Cinema Pipe Organ like never before!

Set in the summer of 1963, Baby Houseman (Jennifer Grey) and her family vacation at the beautiful Catskills resort, Kellermans. Intrigued by the staff’s dance instructor, Johnny Castle (Patrick Swayze), and the vastly different lifestyle of others, Baby finds herself learning to dance while having the time of her life and falling in love.

It’s a summer she’ll never forget…and a film we’ll remember forever.

Prior to the movie screening, a group of very talented musicians will perform hit songs of the 80's. Sing along to some super corkers including Bon Jovi’s Livin’ on a Prayer, Soft Cell’s Tainted Love, Val Halen’s Jump and more! Why not come dressed in your best 80’s getup.

All proceeds from this fundraising event will go towards the ongoing maintenance and restoration of the TOSAQ Christie Cinema Pipe Organ.

TOSAQ has a long history of major film and music events, and Dirty Dancing will be no different when it hits the big screen in June.
