Grease Is The Word


 We enjoyed the musical Grease last night (March 24th, 2026) at the Village Theater in Issaquah.  While the iconic theme song from which I created the headline for this post, was not performed in the production.  All of the other iconic songs were.  

Even though it was the first night it played there, everything went smoothly.  

Of course, we remember the movie of the 70s, starring John Travolta and the late Olivia Newton-John, which featured an almost cartoonish look at 50s teenagers.  Of course, beneath the silliness, it featured serious things that made the teenage years difficult, like acceptance, lost love, and conformity. 

The play preceded the movie and started on Broadway in 1972.

Grease will play at the Village until May 3rd.
