Grease at Algonquin Arts

Grease is a high-octane musical bursting with rock and roll energy, taking you back to the world of 1950s teenagers. Written by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey, it follows a group of greasers and Pink Ladies at Rydell High School as they navigate friendships, romance, and the pressures of fitting in.

The show is packed with iconic and catchy tunes like "Summer Nights," "Greased Lightnin'," and "We Go Together." The story centers around Danny and Sandy, a sweethearts reunited after a summer fling. Danny, the cool greaser leader, tries to impress Sandy by acting tougher than he is, while Sandy transforms from innocent newcomer to a Pink Lady to win Danny's heart. Through hilarious situations, catchy songs, and teenage drama, Grease explores themes of peer pressure, rebellion, and the enduring power of young love.
