Dancing in the Storm is the sixth studio album by Australian rock band Boom Crash Opera. The album was released in Australia on 1 May 2009 as part of the Liberation Music "Blue Acoustic" series. The physical version came with a bonus live DVD, recorded in June 1993.

The group said they recorded "the songs that came easy, without too much thinking or mucking around" and toured the album nationally throughout May and June 2009.

The album was released in the United Kingdom on 5 May 2009 and was the group first UK release since 1987s self-titled debut.

The album was re-released in 2012 under the title Greatest Hits Acoustic.

Paul Cashmere from Undercover FM gave the album 2 out of 5 saying; "The thing about Boom Crash Opera is that they had a hellova lotta hits. When you play Dancing on the Storm, you will be amazed how many songs you know." adding "The Boom Crash Opera of the 80s and 90s were loud. Trimming back the sound for Dancing in the Storm brings a whole new dimension to the songs. The mandolin in "Hands Up in the Air" is a complete contrast to the original electric studio version. That is very much the appeal of this album. Boom Crash Opera have not chosen to create carbon copies of the old songs, instead, choosing to reinvent them. However, it is the lesser known Boom Crash Opera tracks that really bring the brilliance of this band to the surface. The haunting piano driven "Talk About You" is mesmerising. "Caught Between Two Towns" highlights Dale Ryder’s vocals and the bands harmonies. Its tasty stuff."

Kelvin Hayes from Daily Info said; ""Hands Up in the Air" has an almost saloon bar of the wild west appeal, "Love Me to Death" smoulders with slow burning bass pulse and a striking re-interpretation of "Talk About It" is imbued by a sombre piano and eerie electronic shimmer that slouches towards Nancy or Frank Sinatra terrain and is perfectly executed by a band that is wonderfully rejoined by co-founder Richard Pleasance; whose mandolin playing really is the sonic equivalent of an old friend giving you a hug at the station. Welcome back!"
