A must-see show if you love musical theatre.
Memorable moments, joyful references to the original musical and the movies. You find yourself pointing to the screen and gasping (if you are a musicals' nerd, of course)
Great original songs and a lovely cast performing them. Not a jukebox musical like Glee but an original musical almost 10 hours long.
If this get packaged in a West End or Broadway show, it would be an immediate long-running hit.
Do not approach this thinking that the (old) movie Grease is the only (and perfect) way to imagine the life at Rydell High... There are other ways, this is a great one.
Always remember Grease was a theatre show before being a movie and this new Grease is more theatrical and less two-actors-centric like the original one.
I dare to say, in 2023 this show is more enjoyable than the "original" one.
