Fox is celebrating DIRTY DANCING with its new celebrity dance competition THE REAL DIRTY DANCING, debuting Tuesday, February 1.

The series, which will be hosted by Stephen “tWitch” Boss, has “celebrities reliving the classic film’s most memorable dance moments in the hope of becoming the next ‘Baby’ and ‘Johnny.”

According to Fox, “the series follows eight celebrities — Brie Bella, Corbin Bleu, Tyler Cameron, Cat Cora, Howie Dorough, Antonio Gates, Anjelah Johnson-Reyes and Loni Love — as they fully immerse themselves in the ultimate “Dirty Dancing” experience. Set at Virginia’s Mountain Lake Lodge, which was the real location for the film’s fictional Kellerman’s Lodge, the stars will partner up and learn iconic dance routines from the Jennifer Grey-and Patrick Swayze-led movie and recreate classic scenes — including the legendary lift that cemented the film’s spot in cinematic history. Throughout the event special, DIRTY DANCING’s memorable music and unforgettable fashion will transport viewers right back to that magical summer in 1963. The competition will also feature special guest judges who will help decide which celebrity couples will make it through and which couple will be “put in a corner.” In the end, one man and one woman will be crowned the winning “Baby” and “Johnny,” becoming THE REAL DIRTY DANCING champions.”

THE REAL DIRTY DANCING, Series Premiere, Tuesday, February 1, 9/8c, Fox
