Excuse the following pun, but Porter's DROPOUT is gospel.

Joking. It's just so different (and sort of out of place in context of the show) but his vocal prowess shines through. It's exciting to listen to (that and anything Sam Harris sings).

Umm I'm just curious because alot of the reviews in this post mentioned that Laura has little stage time, why? Isn't Sandy the main female character in Grease?

Not in the stage production, no.

Even if you look at the film, though the 2 leads are indeed Sandy and Danny, there are several subplots going on. On stage, Sandy is almost a featured role in this respect -- not a leading role as the show comes off more as an ensemble show. Each character has their 'moment' and song, unlike in the film.

Exactly...in the stage version, Sandy may be the "main character" but the the female lead (in terms of stage time is Rizzo).

And in this revival Robyn Hurder's legs are the star attraction!

I just realized that they eliminated the role of Johnny Casino by combining him and Vince Fontaine into one character!

CPD, you know you can get actual porn right there on your computer, don't you? Hardcore, too! You don't have to go to the theatre to leer at naked men. You don't have to drop a huge chunk of change just to see some twink's pecs on stage when you can usually find a whole bunch of dirty stuff on the internet for free.

More than shirtless--i remember them having the tiniest little towels on I've ever seen.

But really to pay 40 pounds (in the mid 90s) to see that doesn't make any sense

I'm glad I'm not the only one who notices how tiresome, obnoxious and trollish CPD's comments are on this board. He's like Johnny One Note. Get a room!

haha curtainpuller is always Private Messaging me to send him pics of me with my top of and its getting bloody annoying.

Yes in the London Production the boys in the shower (during mooning) just have little towels on (and dance with sponges , so funny so camp).

They still do that to this day since the London and UK Touring production never changes.Though even though its the same production as always it still has 50 times more energy than i have ever seen in any american production.Judging by peoples comments on here that isn't going to change with the new production.

How an earth can you mess up Grease???

You could probably even hire a hustler for less than the cost of a Broadway show.

You think I don't know about Porn?
I just like to mess ir up with a little culture and humour.
And I'm sure I am not the only one.

With all the talk of Nudity its getting a bit silly though.

Ive had numerous Private Messages from you asking for pics of me with my top off and as a 28 year old gay guy im not shocked or offended (especially working in theatre) but they are some young people on here and loads of your posts are asking about Nudity

Its a theatre Board dude.

Sorry Song and Dance, if I think you are attractive.
But guys, NAKED BOYS SINGING just passed nine years
(and I did not like that show), Do you think GREASE will last that long?
I will try to sustain my libido awhile, OK?
Back to GREASE.....
