Grease is the word! Travel back to Rydell High and the hot-rodding Burger Palace Boys and their gum-snapping, hip-shaking Pink Ladies. The 1950s high school dream is about to explode in this rollicking musical that is both an homage to the idealism of the fifties and a satire of high schoolers’ age-old desire to be provocative and rebellious.

Head “greaser” Danny Zuko and new girl Sandy Dumbrowski try to relive their summer romance but now back in the context of school, peer-pressure and cliques make their love a bit more complicated. Can Danny maintain his cool dude status and still make demure Sandy his girl? The whole gang sings and dances around Danny and Sandy’s romance, through such hit songs as "Greased Lightnin'", "We Go Together”, and "Summer Nights".  Grease had an eight-year Broadway run and is among the world’s most popular musicals.

Buffet lunch included prior to the performance and table served dessert during intermission. Coffee, hot & iced tea, soft drinks included. Additional charge for some beverages.
