Secret Cinema PresentS - 2012 & 2016
ROLE: CREATIVE DIRECTOR/ PERFORMANCE DIRECTOR
Dirty Dancing, Secret Cinema recreated the iconic 1963 Kellerman’s Mountain Resort across sprawling outdoor grounds in London, complete with dance classes, talent shows, staff quarters, cocktails, and hidden pockets of surprise action. Audiences became guests of Kellerman’s, looking for a summer escape, learning the cha-cha, sneaking through secret doors, and mingling with characters from the film before finally watching Dirty Dancing, singing their hearts out and having the time of their lives.
This show reintroduced the film into the UK box office top ten after its staging.
Dirty Dancing 2016 was the first show I took on as Creative Director for Secret Cinema, and I was proud to bring my creative flavour to help shape the DNA that has made this an unforgettable experience for thousands of fans.
