The Location
Kenny Ortega was chosen by screenwriter Eleanor Bergstein to do the choreography for the film. Ortega was trained by Gene Kelly and he was eager to start on the project. However when it came to choosing a location, they struggled to find anything in the Catskills that was suitable. Therefore they chose two locations, ake Lure, North Carolina and the Mountain Lake Hotel near Pembroke, Virginia. The crew were very careful in the editing as they needed to make it look as though all the shooting took place in the same area.
