Why see Grease?
GREASE IS THE WORD!
Don't miss your local production of the hydromatic favorite!
One of the most popular musicals of all time comes to town! Written by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey, this Brylcreem-heavy show charts the ups and downs of teenage couple Danny and Sandy as they navigate the social politics of 1950's Rydell High School. The score is packed with one hit number after another, including 'Beauty School Dropout,' 'Greased Lightnin',' 'We Go Together,' 'Born to Hand Jive,' and 'Summer Nights'.
The original Grease musical premiered on Broadway in 1972, where it was nominated for seven Tonys (it was the year of Follies, but it should have still won one of them!). Its reputation was of course sealed by its iconic silver screen adaptation that arrived six years later, starring the fresh-faced John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John, who were both on the cusp of superstardom.

Must see for Grease fans - a great time!
After watching the show on tv, we had to see the production on Broadway and were there for opening night on Tuesday, July 24, 2007! It was so exciting to see two characters who seemed like friends (after watching them on tv) play the roles of Danny and Sandy. You could tell the whole cast had such a terrific time together and there was a lot of mutual respect among the characters.
I would highly recommend this show to anyone and everyone looking for a good time and great music!
Highly recommend Thalia, just around the corner around 49th street!

Ashley Spencer and Derek Keeling
Wow! What a performance by these two! Ashley and Derek are wonderful and the best fit for these roles. The producers got it quite right by casting these two in the show! Also, the rest of the cast was superb! Get on a bus, train or plane and see this show. You won't be sorry. So much fun!
