It’s 1959, and Rydell High School’s senior class is in rare form. The too-cool-for-school “Burger Palace Boys” are stealing hubcaps and acting tough and their gum-snapping chain-smoking “Pink Ladies” are looking hot in bobby sox and pedal pushers. The 1950s high school dream is about to explode in this rollicking musical that is both an homage to the idealism to the fifties and a satire of high schoolers’ age-old desire to be rebellious, 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. They had a secret romance in summer, but now back in the context of school, peer-pressure and cliques make their love a bit more complicated. The whole gang sings and dances around Danny and Sandy’s romance, through hit songs such as “Greased Lightnin”, “We Go Together” and “Grease is the Word”. Can Danny maintain his cool dude status and still make demure Sandy his girl?
