ABOUT THE SHOW

“GREASE” harkens back to the 1950’s with hot-rodding and hip-shaking as the popular leader of the T-Birds, Danny, and the new good girl to Rydell High, Sandy, try to reignite their Summer romance among the interest and turmoil of the rest of the high school gang. The Pink Ladies rally to support each other and Sandy while Danny and the boys grow to accept that they must answer to their actions to control their fate while the ladies continue to find their independence and voice.
