How wrong can a person be? It's certainly true that Grease has done the rounds: premiered on Broadway in 1972, previously ran for six years in the West End, toured the UK (and the world) ceaselessly.

The last time I saw the stage version was five years ago at the Cambridge Theatre, and to say it was beginning then to submit to fatigue is putting it politely.

I went and saw 'Grease' on Friday night and I thought it was BRILLIANT! I am a huge fan of musical theatre and every character in this performance put thier heart and soul into it. Ben Richards brought Danny to life when he portrayed him. Suzanne Carley really made Sandy innocent and pure. Robbie Scotcher really played it cool with Kenickie. Mary Doherty really looked like she was going to cry in "There are worse things I could do", brilliant acting skills. All the T-Birds made us laugh until we were crying... so much emotion there. All the Pink Ladies brought so much femininity to thier roles it was unbelievably brilliant! And last but not least: Vince Fontaine/Teen Angel Eugene Patty Miss Lynch Cha Cha Rocky Crystal C Matt Candy Reggie Ginger Dean Jeannie Spencer and Charlie... Brilliant as all those typical teens (and teachers/rock and rool stars/radio stars) BRILLIANT! BEST STAGE SHOW I HAVE EVER SEEN! Thanks, Leanne Waller...
