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 eight-year
run on Broadway and two subsequent revivals, along with innumerable
school and community productions place Grease among the world's most popular musicals.

"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
