You’re the one that we want for this special screening of Grease at SCADshow, followed by a discussion with the film’s legendary director Randal Kleiser! Audiences are invited to sing along as Sandy and Danny's summer romance collides with the realities of life at Rydell High. Packed with unforgettable songs, memorable characters, and 1950s fashion, Grease has remained one of the most beloved movie musicals of all time nearly 50 years after its blockbuster debut.
Following the screening, Kleiser will share behind-the-scenes stories, reflections on making the classic film, and insights into its enduring cultural impact.
