Enchanted Cinema presents DIRTY DANCING (12)

Spending the summer at a Catskills resort with her family, Frances ‘Baby’ Houseman falls in love with the camp’s dance instructor, Johnny Castle. Before the screening, there will be live music by some of the best local musicians in Cambridge getting you into the mood for the night ahead.

Baby (Jennifer Grey) is one listless summer away from the Peace Corps. Hoping to enjoy her youth while it lasts, she's disappointed when her summer plans deposit her at a sleepy resort in the Catskills with her parents. Her luck turns around, however, when the resort's dance instructor, Johnny (Patrick Swayze), enlists Baby as his new partner, and the two fall in love. Baby's father forbids her from seeing Johnny, but she's determined to help him perform the last big dance of the summer.

Enchanted Cinema is back for its 5th-year of inner-city cinematic magic. They return this year to one of their favourite venues, The Gonville Hotel’s magical gardens, in the centre of our beautiful city.

Well have the bar open and fully stocked, full of Cambridge's independent suppliers (and sterilized) - so please, continue to leave the picnic at home and let us take care of the drinks and nibbles for the evening. 

These guys are all about creating an original and vibrant cinema scene that offers an exciting way to watch a great film. Expect to be wowed by a short film before each screening, magical light installations and live music from local artists. These events are set to be the most magical of the summer.

Seating will be placed in bookings for the moment being, an arrangement of the bookings will be awaiting in the evening. We operate the evening on a first come first serve basis. We are a rain or shine event so if the Great British weather surprises us and the skies open, the event will go ahead so make sure you bring warm and waterproof clothes (just in case). 

Sit back in a deckchair, fresh popcorn and a drink in hand, and experience cinema as you never have before this summer…
