School's back from summer and the senior class is gathering for their final year at Rydell High. As "greaser" Danny Zuko and new "good" girl Sandy Dumbrowski relive the romance of their "Summer Nights" it becomes clear that that each needs to change their perspective!  Sassy, funny, evocative and provocative, this infectious musical showcases all that was fantastic about the fifties: rock n' roll numbers that recall the music of Buddy Holly, Little Richard and Elvis Presley -  plus hot-roddin, ducktailed 'burger palace boys" and bobby-soxed, poodle-skirted pink ladies!
