Sha Na Na to Perform at GREASE SING-A-LONG at Hollywood Bowl, 7/13

By popular demand, the Hollywood Bowl is once again transformed into the world's largest movie theater for the GreaseSing-A-Long Saturday, July 13, 2013. The show, hosted by Didi Conn ("Frenchy"), will feature the Paramount Pictures film, complete with subtitles so the whole audience can sing along.

For the pre-show, rock 'n roll doo-wop legends Sha Na Na will perform a live set starting at 7:30pm, followed by a short audience warm-up led by Ms. Conn, with the film starting at 8:30 pm. Sha Na Na, cast in the movie as Johnny Casino and the Gamblers, performed six songs on the Grease soundtrack and the song "Sandy," sung by John Travolta, was co-written by Sha Na Na's piano man Screamin' Scott Simon.

Now a Hollywood Bowl tradition, this family-friendly event will coincide with the 35th anniversary of Grease, the highest grossing musical film of all-time. Directed by Randal Kleiser and based on Jim Jacobs' and WarRen Casey's musical of the same name, Grease was released in 1978 by Paramount Pictures to tremendous critical and popular acclaim. The film was nominated for five Golden Globes and an Oscar, and was the winner of the People's Choice Award for Best Musical. Grease stars John Travolta, Olivia Newton-John, Stockard Channing, Jeff Conaway, and Didi Conn.

Sha Na Na combined their love for the classics of rock & roll with a dynamic theatrical approach, as fellow college students at Columbia University in New York in 1969. In addition to co-starring in the movie Grease as Johnny Casino and the Gamblers, they had four seasons of their own worldwide television series, The Sha Na Na Show. Their latest album SHA NA NA - Greaser High School Hop, to be released on Tuesday, July 2, 2013, features twenty-five signature '50s and '60s songs including "The Bop," "The Twist," "The Stroll," "The Hand Jive," "The Monkey," "The Jerk," "The Cha Cha," and even "The Hokey Pokey."
