Grease July 11, 2008

This is the 1950s rock 'n' roll musical! Gum-chewing, hubcap-stealing, hot-rod-loving boys with D.A.'s and their wise-cracking girls in bobby sox and pedal pushers capture the look and sound of Rydell High School's Class of !59 in a rollicking musical. While hip Danny Zuko and wholesome Sandy Dumbrowski resolve the problems of their mutual attraction, the gang sings and dances its way through such nostalgic scenes as the pajama party, the prom, the burger palace and the drive-in movie. Songs recall the Buddy Holly hiccups, the Little Richard yodels and the Elvis Presley wiggles that made the music of the !50s a gas.
