Christopher Herr and Ashley Harris star as head “Greaser” Danny Zuko and girl-next-door Sandy Dumbrowski, two teenagers trying to relive the high romance of their “Summer Nights” as the rest of the gang sings and dances its way through such favorites as “Greased Lightnin’,” “It’s Raining on Prom Night,” “We Go Together” and many more!

Directed by Tom Thayer and choreographed by Alicia Jayne Kelly*, “Grease” also features Anthony Nuccio as Kenickie, Rori Nogee as Rizzo, Cameron Perry as Doody, Kari Grunberg as Frenchy, Ian Erbe as Sonny, Alicia Jayne Kelly* as Marty, Derik Lawson as Roger, Emily Rourke as Jan, Ryan Bowie as Eugene Florczyk, Samantha Carroll as Patty Simcox, Matthew Smolko as Vince Fontaine, Matt Casey as Johnny Casino and Teen Angel, Ashley Knowles as Cha-Cha, and Leslie Greene as Miss Lynch.

On Saturday, July 19th, at 6:30pm, patrons are invited to a pre-show cookout under the marquee with hamburgers, hot dogs and all the fixin’s. Then at 8:00pm, they can sing their hearts out along with Rydell High’s senior class of 1959 in that evening’s performance of “Grease”. Tickets to the “Grease Cookout & Singalong” are $40.00 (adults) and $25.00 (ages 13 and under).

Friday, July 11th, is the traditional pay-what-you-can preview of “Grease”. All tickets not pre-sold at the regular ticket price will go on sale at 7:30pm for whatever price patrons wish to pay.
