Grease
Here is
Rydell High’s senior class of 1959: duck-tailed, hot-rodding “Burger Palace
Boys” and their gum-snapping, hip-shaking “Pink Ladies” in bobby sox and pedal
pushers, evoking the look and sound of the 1950s in this rollicking musical.
Head “greaser” Danny Zuko and new (good) girl Sandy Dumbrowski try to relive
the high romance of their “Summer Nights” as the rest of the gang sings and
dances its way through such songs as “Greased Lightnin'”, “It’s Raining on Prom
Night”, “Alone at the Drive-In Movie” recalling the music of Buddy Holly,
Little Richard and Elvis Presley that became the soundtrack of a generation. 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.
Performances: July 22 & 23, 2016 at 1:00pm and 7:00pm in
JBK Theater, Skidmore College
