Grease

Picture
Here is Rydell High’s senior class of 1959: duck-tailed, hot-rodding “T-Birds” and their gum-snapping, hip-shaking “Pink Ladies” in bobby sox and pedal pushers, evoking the look and sound of the 1950’s in this rollicking musical. Head “greaser” Danny Zuko and new girl Sandy Dumbrowski try to relive the romance of their “Summer Nights” as the rest of the gang sings and dances its way through such songs as “Greased Lightnin", You're The One That I Want” and "We Go Together". 

An 8-year run on Broadway and two subsequent revivals along with innumerable school and community productions place Grease among the world’s most popular musicals. “GREASE” the musical premiered on Broadway in 1972 and played for 3388 performances becoming the longest running musical at the time and has triumphed throughout the world ever since. In 1978 “Grease” went on to become a hugely successful film, starring John Travolta and Olivia Newtown-John.

"A lively and funny musical-as well as the dancingest one in town. It's a winner...the songs are dandies [that portray] the early rockers with zip and charm. The sheer energy of Grease carries all before it." - New York Daily News

Grease will play for a strictly limited season at the Redcliffe Cultural Centre:

  • Friday June 12 at 7.30pm
  • Saturday June 13 at 11am, 3pm (understudies) and 7.30pm
