School proms? St John’s students are going one better with GREASE

The annual St John’s musical takes place this week in the Theatre on the Hill  – and this time they’re doing a little contemporary history lesson with GREASE.

The cast for this production is made up of students from Years 10-13.  Their considerable talents have been nurtured and developed by Tess Ellison, a Year 13 student.

Tess has stepped up from her previous acting and co-directing roles to direct this production single-handed.

All you have to do is dust off your leather jackets, pull on your bobby-socks and take a trip to a simpler time as ‘bad boy’ Danny and ‘the girl next door’ Sandy fall in love all over again.

It’s the original High-School musical, featuring all those unforgettable songs including You’re The One That I Want, Summer Nights, Sandra Dee, Freddy My Love, Hopelessly Devoted To You, Greased Lightnin’ – and many more.

So throw your mittens around your kittens and Hand Jive the night away with the show that’ll make you want to stand up and shout, ‘A-wop-bop-a-loo-bop, A-wop-bam-boom!’

The word from rehearsals is that it’s ‘electrifying’.  So don’t miss GREASE.

Performances are Tuesday, July 9,  Thursday July 11, and Friday July 12 –  at 7.30 pm.

Ticket prices are  adults £8 each. U18/ Senior Citizen £6 each. Family Tickets (2X2)  £25.
