Next up on the Main Stage at The Noel S. Ruiz Theatre, running from April 8 - May 6, CM Performing Arts Presents the Family Favorite: GREASE! Scroll down for a sneak peek at the cast in character!
Here is Rydell High's senior class of 1959: duck-tailed, hot-rodding "Burger Palace Boys" and their gum-snapping, hip-shaking "Pink Ladies" in bobby sox and pedal pushers, evoking the look and sound of the 1950s in this rollicking musical. Head "greaser" Danny Zuko and new (good) girl Sandy Dumbrowski try to relive the high romance of their "Summer Nights" as the rest of the gang sings and dances its way through such songs as "Greased Lightnin'", "It's Raining on Prom Night", "Alone at the Drive-In Movie" recalling the music of Buddy Holly, Little Richard and Elvis Presley that became the soundtrack of a generation. Rated PG-13.
Directed and choreographed by PatRick Grossman, musically directed by Matthew Surico and stage managed by Karen Tese, the cast features: Danny - Steve Cottonaro; Sandy - M.E. Junge; Kenickie - Andrew Murano; Doody - Ronnie Green; Sonny - Chris Loeschner; Roger - Sean Burbige; Rizzo - Debbie Hecht; Frenchy - Kristen Digilio; Marty - Ashley Nicastro; Jan - Noelle Eichenlaub; Miss Lynch - Linda Pentz; Eugene - Ryan Cavanagh; Patty - Gabrielle Farah; and Cha-Cha - Samantha Rosario.
