Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey's GREASE is one of my favorite shows, and I've seen several different versions of it over the last few years. Having seen the movie when I was a teenager, I'd always preferred productions that included songs from the film. But, ever since I saw New Line Theatre's raw, original take, I've become something of a purist. I still enjoy the inclusion of John Farrar and Barry Gibb's tunes, but I do think the show ends up watered down in the process. So, I was curious as to how the touring company, which features former American Idol contestant Taylor Hicks in the Teen Angel role, would play.
