Grease April 27, 2011

Grab that poodle skirt, slick back your hair and get ready to rock ‘n’ roll -- 50’s style -- when the 2010-2011 national tour of the new Broadway production of the hit musical GREASE™ makes its way to Boston’s Citi Performing Arts Center Wang Theatre for one week only, playing Wednesday, April 27 through Sunday, May 1.

After spending a hopelessly devoted summer with Sandy Dumbrowski, the new girl in town, Danny Zuko's world is thrown upside down when Sandy appears at Rydell High on the first day of school. What follows is a rock n' roll celebration of growin' up, cruisin' with friends and goin' steady. The new production of GREASE™ features songs from the smash hit 1978 motion picture, including “Sandy,” the Academy Award nominated song “Hopelessly Devoted to You,” “Grease” and “You’re the One That I Want” - both of which were #1 hits on the Billboard Top 100 list. These songs will be heard in addition to the Jacobs/Casey songs made famous by the original stage production such as “Summer Nights,” “Greased Lightnin’” and “We Go Together.”

GREASE™ plays at the Citi Performing Arts Center Wang Theatre for eight performances: Wednesday, April 27 at 7:30 PM; Thursday and Friday evenings at 8:00 PM; Saturday, April 30
at 11:00 AM, 3:00 and 8:00 PM; and Sunday, May 1 at 1:00 PM and 6:00 PM. On Wednesday, April 27, all tickets are priced at $58.00; for all other performances, tickets are priced at $28 -$98; all prices include a $3.00 facility fee per ticket. Tickets for GREASE™ are on sale at the Citi Performing Arts Center Box Office, online at www.citicenter.org or by calling (866) 348-9738.
