GREASE
February 16 - March 11
Directed by
Greg Williams
Musical Directors
Greg Hanenburg & Robert Forman

Rydell High's spirited class of '59 - gumchewing, hubcap-stealing, hot-rod loving boys with D.A.'s and leather jackets and their wise-cracking girls in teased curls, bobby sox, and pedal pushers - capture the look and sound of the 1950's in a rollicking musical that salutes the rock 'n' roll era. While hip Danny Zuko and wholesome Sandy Dumbrowski resolve the problems of their mutual attraction for each other, the gang sings and dances its way through such nostalgic scenes as the pajama party, the prom, the burger palace, and the drive-in movie. "Look At Me, I'm Sandra Dee," "Summer Nights," and "Greased Lightnin" are among the many songs reminiscent of the rock 'n' roll of the fifties.

Greaser Danny Zuko, played by Troy Criss from North Kitsap High School, met Sandy Dumbrowski, played by Bremerton High School's Heather Meagher, a young innocent, during the summer, and it was love at first sight. Danny showed his sensitive side, but he didn't expect to see her at Rydell High the first day of school. Because his friends are watching him, he reverts to his greaser personality - which makes Sandy join the female version of the greaser life - the Pink Ladies. Teens and adults from various parts of Kitsap County joining them on stage as the Pink Ladies, the Burger Palace boys, and others will include:
