Synopsis
Danny and Sandy fall for each other during a carefree summer fling. But when the school year begins, Danny is torn between his feelings for good-girl Sandy and his image with the T-Birds and the Pink Ladies.
Notes:
Grease closed at the Eugene O'Neill Theatre on Feb. 23, 1997 to make way for a revival of Annie. However, when Annie decided to open at the larger Martin Beck Theatre instead of the O'Neill, Grease re-opened on Apr. 8, 1997.
