I totally disagree with the review in the tribune. I saw the show recently and the review is written by someone who did not like the film (he quotes lines from the stage play that aren't in the film as film quotes) and only likes traditional musicals and does not get that dirty dancing is a play with music and dance - get it - dirty dancing. He doesn't once mention the dancing which is unbelievable and deserves praise. He was probably the same type of critic who said Contact was not a musical
