It’s 1959, and Rydell High School’s senior class is in rare form. The 1950’s high school dream is about to explode in this rollicking musical that is both an homage to the idealism of the fifties and a satire of high schoolers’ age-old desire to be provocative and rebellious. At the heart of the story is the romance between hot-rodding gangster Danny Zuko and the sweet new girl in town, Sandy Dumbrowski. Can Danny maintain this cook dude status and still make demure Sandy his girl? The whole gang sings and dances around Danny and Sandy’s romance, through such hit songs as “Greased Lightnin”, “We Go Together”, and “Mooning”, the soundtrack of a generation. Grease is the word! 

We will enjoy a lunch buffet in a private room at Yoder’s Kitchen.
