Grease is known as one of the best Broadway musicals ever adapted for the big screen. Set in the 1950’s at Rydell High School, Grease tells the story of Danny, a leather jacket-wearing hunky hood, and Sandy, an innocent “goody-goody.” Sandy and Danny meet and fall in love over the summer, say their sad goodbyes only to realize in September that Sandy’s family has moved to Danny's town and she and Danny are classmates at Rydell. Can their summer romance survive the drama of senior year? Enjoy some of musical theater’s timeless tunes, while watching explosive choreography.
