Grease

Grease is the time honoured 1950’s musical about two young teenagers who fall in love when they meet over the summer High School break. When they return to Rydell High School, however, it is clear that they are from very different cliques. Danny Zuko is leader of the leather-clad T Birds and the epitome of cool, whilst straight laced, cardigan wearing Sandy is anything but, and comes under the scrutiny of female gang The Pink Ladies. What follows is a story of romance, teenage angst and love amidst a superb soundtrack of 1950’s music. John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John starred as the lead roles in the 1978 film version. Famous numbers from the score of Grease include Grease is The Word, You’re The One That I Want and Hopelessly Devoted to You.

New to the cast is Dancing On Ice judge and Olympic gold medal winner Robin Cousins, who will play Teen Angel.  Cousins has the graced the stage previously  in Roger and Hammerstein’s Cinderella and The Rocky Horror Show in London theatre, although is best known for his multiple gold medal achievements upon the ice and as a panel judge for the ITV show Dancing On Ice.

Grease

Noel Sullivan will be taking over the role of Danny Zuko from Ray Quinn. This is Noel’s first appearance in the West End and could be considered his big break although he has appeared in a few musicals before. These include ‘Simply Ballroom’, ‘What a Feeling’ and ‘Love Shack’.

He will join Emma Stephens, who plays his love interest Sandy. Before ‘Grease’, Emma was in ‘Starlight Express’ and ‘Saturday Night Fever’.

Stuart Ramsay plays Kenickie and has previously played in ‘Cats’ and ‘Les Miserables’.

‘Grease’ premiered on Broadway in 1972. The film which starred John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John became the biggest money-maker of any film musical ever.

The composers Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey wrote the show as a reaction against so called traditional musicals filled with show tunes. The current production includes all the hit songs from the film so is a different version to the original show. It has been in and out of the West End ever since, we have theatre tickets on sale for the current production.

The current run of ‘Grease’ opened on the 8th August 2007 and looks set for a third successful year. It first opened in the West End on the 15th of July 1993 at the Dominion Theatre.

Jimmy Osmond to Star in Grease!

It’s been the word ever since John Travolta told us so. What is it? Grease of course, that’s the word. The latest incarnation of Grease takes place in London’s West End in the Piccadilly Theatre, and is more of an explosion of light and colour than a word.

This Grease, much like many West End musicals in London Theatres right now, manages to transcend the Theatre/TV divide by attracting audiences not typically found in the theatre by having one of the reality TV stars of recent times in its line-up. Liverpool’s Ray Quinn, of X-Factor fame, stars as ‘Doody’. Ray was second to Leona Lewis in the X-Factor final in 2007. Playing the comedic role that he does, Ray is in his element and comes across like a true performer.

Ray isn’t the only reality TV star to take to the stage in this performance though, Danny Bayne, who won the ITV talent finder show ‘Grease is the Word’ still plays the lead of Danny. He’s now joined by Nicole Brazil as his new Sandy.

The show itself is the epitome of kitsch, with the stage adorned with fifties memorabilia. Directed by David Gilmore (for the second time in London’s West End) Grease is one of the biggest hits of the year in terms of theatre ticket sales.
