Grease

Grease at Byham Theater

Why see Grease?

GREASE IS THE WORD!

Don't miss your local production of the hydromatic favorite!

One of the most popular musicals of all time comes to town! Written by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey, this Brylcreem-heavy show charts the ups and downs of teenage couple Danny and Sandy as they navigate the social politics of 1950's Rydell High School. The score is packed with one hit number after another, including 'Beauty School Dropout,' 'Greased Lightnin',' 'We Go Together,' 'Born to Hand Jive,' and 'Summer Nights'.

The original Grease musical premiered on Broadway in 1972, where it was nominated for seven Tonys (it was the year of Follies, but it should have still won one of them!). Its reputation was of course sealed by its iconic silver screen adaptation that arrived six years later, starring the fresh-faced John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John, who were both on the cusp of superstardom.

Energetic and Fun

We drove from Toronto for the weekend to see this production of Grease, for a girls weekend and absolutely loved it. While I agree with another reviewer that the part of Zuko was a bit miscast (the actor was playing Troy Donahue, not Zuko, to me)..we really enjoyed 95% of the cast especially Clay Aiken, Jackie Burns, Hannah Kohn and Mei Lu Barnham. Clay was OTT and wonderful as the Angel, and Jackie was a bombshell Rizzo. Congratulations to everyone! We had a great time and would definitely come back to the CLO. ... Read more
