    Keith & Paddy – Dirty Dancing at Tatton

    Tatton Park, Knutsford, Cheshire, WA16 6SG

    Television stars Keith Lemon and Paddy McGuiness will be Dirty Dancing at Tatton Park this August.

    The duo will put in an appearance a comedy event MovieFest, celebrating 80’s cinema, culminating in a screening of the Patrick Swayze/Jennifer Grey classic movie.

    Keith and Paddy imagine running a video shop, drawing on movies from the decade of shoulder pads and leg-warmers as films are screened on a high-definition outdoor screen.

    Each screening will involve a special twist – where Paddy and Keith will return to the stage in a surprise finale and post-show party.

    Organised by The Luna Cinema and Showcase Cinemas, Dirty Dancing will be screened in the grounds of Tatton Park on Friday, August 30 and Saturday, August 31.

    Mark Barlow, general manager, Showcase Cinemas UK, said: “We’re delighted to be working alongside Keith and Paddy as they launch their exciting new MovieFest concept. They love films just as much as we do and we know it’s going to be a laugh out loud series of events.

    “Who’d have thought one of the all-time favourite classics, Dirty Dancing, could get any better?  We’re passionate about delivering the very best immersive cinema experiences and this is most definitely going to complement our hugely popular Flashback and Event Cinema screenings."

    And Keith Lemon added: "Really excited about MovieFest! In the past I’ve projected onto a bed sheet in me garden, but this is gonna be a next level! And with me good mate Paddy McGuinness! First film we’re hosting is Dirty Dancing. There’s gonna be food and drink, we’re gonna have music! It’s gonna be a wicked party! And party is my middle name. Well it in’t really, it’s Ian.”
