Una noche donde la nostalgia se vistió de rock and roll, bailes y mucha energía.

The Dakota Academy of Performing Arts (DAPA) at the Washington Pavilion is excited to present three performances of GREASE July 27-28, 2018 in the Edith Mortenson Center at Augustana University.

It's fun, perhaps even joyful, and audiences are clearly delighted to reward director Matthew Hayes Hunter's youthful cast with riotous applause at the appropriate moments, but do they really endorse the message of the timeworn Jacobs and Casey script? Heck, do they even think about it?

The TexARTS Professional Series begins the 2018/2019 season with Grease, the beloved rock n' roll musical celebrating friendships, fast cars, and first loves. The musical written by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey plays July 13 - 29, 2018 at the Kam & James Morris Theatre in Lakeway. 

The Theatre Group at SBCC will start the season July 11-28, 2018 in the Garvin Theatre with the musical, GREASE.  Book, lyrics and music by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey.

Trotting out its third different opening scene, GREASE still doesn't have its artistic act together, but it still delivers mindless, guilty, and politically incorrect pleasures in abundance - with double scoops of sock hop nostalgia.

Dust off your leather jackets, pull on your bobby-socks and take a trip to a simpler time as Danny and Sandy fall in love all over again at the Ivoryton Playhouse. Opening on July 5th and running through July 29th, GREASE, BY Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey,  features all the unforgettable songs from the hit movie including "You're The One That I Want", "Grease Is The Word", "Summer Nights", "Hopelessly Devoted To You", "Greased Lightnin'" and many more.

The Theatre Group at SBCC will start the season July 11-28, 2018 in the Garvin Theatre with the energetic musical, GREASE,  book, lyrics and music by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey.

In a tradition that started in 1978 with Frankie Avalon, Grease: The Musical announces its fifth special cameo appearance by Grammy-Award singer/songwriter Michelle Williams who will join the other celebrity teen idols: Mark Ballas, George Canyon, Logan Henderson and Drake Bell -- in the iconic role of 'Teen Angel'.

The TexARTS Professional Series begins the 2018/2019 season with Grease, the beloved rock n' roll musical celebrating friendships, fast cars, and first loves. The musical written by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey plays July 13 - 29, 2018 at the Kam & James Morris Theatre in Lakeway. 

Grease has been a part of the American musical theater vernacular for so long - it opened in Chicago some 47 years ago in the halcyon days of 1971 - that it's easy to overlook the show's impact on theater, in general, and audiences, in particular. Its multiple revivals on Broadway, in regional theater and in various community theater and high school drama settings probably makes you believe you've seen in far more often than you actually have (unless, of course, you watch the film treatment with John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John over and over).

It's got a groove, it's got a meaning…and it's still a cultural phenomenon 40 years after its original release.  The iconic celebration of high school life in the 1950s,GREASE is the way you'll be feeling with a new 40th Anniversary Edition on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, DVD and Digital April 24, 2018 from Paramount Home Media Distribution. 

The Theatre Group at SBCC is excited to announce the 2018-2019 season of plays.  GREASE, THE GAME'S AFOOT, HARVEY and SIGNIFICANT OTHER. 

Following the success of their first joint production last December of Little Shop of Horrors, the Kravis Center for the Performing Arts and MNM Theatre Company today announced that they are partnering again to co-present MNM's fourth show in 2018, GREASE, the most popular movie musical in history.

In their 96th season, The Chatham Players presents 'Grease' with Book, Music and Lyrics by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey. Directed by James Mosser and Produced by Bob Lukasik, this musical includes some of the songs that we all know and love from the 1978 film, with a few added songs in the mix.

Get ready to be swept off your feet with the world premiere of new musical, An Officer and a Gentleman, arriving at Birmingham Hippodrome from Tues 15 - Sat 19 May.

An award-winning season including five Tony Award winners with over 100 nominations among them; a Grammy for Best Musical Theatre Album  and the 2017 Pulitzer Prize for Drama Salt Lake City -- Pioneer Theatre Company's 2018-2019 season will open with the Regional Premiere of Oslo by J. T. Rogers, winner of the 2017 Tony Award for Best Play and the 2017 Obie Award for Best New American Theatre Work.
