Melbourne audiences have been blown away and the critics have run out of superlatives — the brand new production of Grease is already a sensation and it’s only weeks away from opening in Sydney.
Featuring Joseph Spanti as Danny Zuko and Annelise Hall as Sandy Olsson, this exciting new mounting of the all time favourite musical boasts an illustrious cast including Patti Newton as Miss Lynch, Jay Laga’aia as Vince Fontaine and Marcia Hines as Teen Angel.
Grease has a special place in the hearts of Australians, with our own Olivia Newton-John having played Sandy alongside John Travolta as Danny in the 1978 film adaptation. Songs from the musical have gained their own fame, having been released as singles and being perpetually included in karaoke playlists and requested from party DJs.
It’s a fun story with lots of youthful frivolity and energy; a true crowd pleaser.
This production is faithful to the original while giving it some fresh tweaks. The stellar Aussie cast and impeccable creative team guarantee this production of Grease will be up there with the best performed anywhere.
