- I was paralyzed by anxiety

For september goes to Silas Holst again on the stage as Johnny Castle, once the 'Dirty Dancing' returns to Denmark.

The role of the he had also in 2015, when the musical was first shown on the Danish scenes, and he welcomes in the degree to pull in danskeskoene again.

- It will be great. I have played many roles, but this is one of the ones that have been sitting. So it took not a long time, when I was asked if I would make it again. Of course, I would since it. It is one of the funniest experiences I have had on a stage, says Silas Holst, en Ekstra Bladet meets him at the press conference in connection with the unveiling.

There has been a part of Silas' life, since he first went on stage as Johnny Castle. And he believes that it is also going to add the character something extra.

I have become five years older and has had two children. So I think I can get to it all with a slightly different angle. I hope that I can contribute with something new, for I think that the repetition is so terribly boring, says Silas Holst and continues:

- Although it is here being put up again, so it's not a repeat. There will also be new initiatives, and we have Eleanor Bergstein (who stands behind the story, red.). She comes and attends the rehearsals and help us, and I'm thinking that we get a lot of inspiration from her as well really is a 'Baby', even though she will not admit to it. But it says the rumors after all. I don't think it can be much fatter than that.

'Dirty Dancing'-the musical was a resounding success when it was first shown in Denmark.

But Silas Holst don't feel that it puts pressure on the new team, it must try to live up to the great success.

- I think not - on the contrary. The last time I was so full of awe to make the piece, because many have so close a relation to the film. The role is just so iconic, so I was often a little paralyzed by anxiety and thought: 'Oh, now I'm going to say the phrase' and such a thing, he says, and continues:

- And I could feel that the feeling had disappeared by the last time, so it is hugely nice that I can now start without all that and just know that people are with it. They are happy with it, and it is the cool thing to make something that people know. You should not tell them what it is. They know what they need to see, and then you so just live up to their expectations.

While Karina Frimodt because of the musical has excluded to participate in the upcoming season of 'dancing with the stars', has Silas Holst stated that nothing is yet decided from his side. He is not dismissive that he can return and make an attempt to repeat last year's victory.

'Dirty Dancing' will premiere in the Scandic Falconer the 10. september 2020.
