'Grease' is the Word! New London Theatre Opens Production July 11

New London Theatre presents "Grease," opening July 11th and continuing through July 27. “Grease” is being directed by Barry West.

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'", "You’re the One that I Want", "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.

"Grease" will be performed on the following dates and times: July 11-12, 18-19, 25-26, 8 p.m.; July 13, 20, 27, 2:30 p.m.

Tickets are $12 in advance or $15 on the day of the show. Children/students (3-19) and seniors (55+) are always $10.  Tickets can be purchased either online or at the theatre box office.
