THE WILD AND WACKY SUPERCOOL '50'S ARE BACK!
GREASE IS THE WORD!

It's time to turn back the clock to 1959 as GREASE slides into town in a brand new show.

Grab your favorite Pink Lady and travel back to when beehives were in and coifs were cool. GREASE, takes a hilarious, tuneful and loving look at what it was like growing-up in the super-cool '50's with the funniest gang of high school students you'll ever meet. It takes place in a time when hot-rod-loving boys in black-leather jackets chased boy-crazy girls in white bobby socks and pedal pushers. A simplistic plot about young love, most of us can easily relate to this captivating story.

One of the phenomenons of the American Musical Theatre, GREASE ran for 3,388 performances that amount to almost eight years during its first Broadway run! The original production was nominated for seven Tony Awards including "Best Musical" and three Tony Awards for the revival, including "Best Revival". The track record of GREASE has also shown that its popularity beyond Broadway: since opening in 1972, the show has played with enormous success throughout the United States, in Mexico, Australia, Europe and South America.

GREASE brings back the classic rock 'n' roll sounds of the fifties with songs including "We Go Together," "Summer Nights", "Beauty School Dropout" and "Born to Hand Jive." And for those of you who cannot get enough of GREASE, special arrangements have been made to include three hit songs from the movie: "Hopelessly Devoted to You" and "You're The One That I Want" and Barry Gibb's "Grease". Not forgetting "Summer Lovin' and "Greased Lightnin".

In the current GREASE tour, Jamey Isenor plays King of the Burger Palace Boys, Danny Zuko and Hanna-Liina Vosa plays wholesome, naïve transfer student Sandy Dumbrowski. Both are experienced and dynamic main leads with theatrical credits and both played the same roles for the American tour.

GREASE was written by Warren Casey and Jim Jacobs. Direction is by Ray DeMattis; choreography by Christopher Gattelli; set design by James Youmans; costumes by Wendall Goings; lighting design by Mike Baldassari; and sound design and musical direction by Steve Bishop.
