I've seen it.

Grease is not the word.

Not by a long shot.

Do a SEARCH. There are quite a few 'reviews' threads on this revival.

And no. GREASE is NOT the word, unfortunately.

Actually, the word of the day is AUGHT.

I beg to differ with the other reviews. I had a great time at Grease. It is fun and entertaining. The audience loves the show.

I am sure WBAF will put me on his shill list, but it isn't Shakespeare, it's Grease!

Lynnespock, you aren't spitting Grease-related catch phrases at us or saying "The excitment in the air was exciting" as other posters have. You're not a shill.

Just ask . . .

Lynnespock2, you are the ugliest poster I have ever seen.

And no, it is NOT the word. Or even a word.

Thanks NBT for the compliment. I know you saw me in my last production of Honk as the ugly duckling.....

Sarah8? I liked it although I seem to be in the minority on this thread.

Grease is the Word. It's a fabulous production, fresh and invigorating. Max and Laura are tremendous.

Max and Laura are tremendous

- From what has been said. Laura is anything BUT tremendeous in her 10 minutes of stage time.

"Grease is the Word. It's a fabulous production, fresh and invigorating. Max and Laura are tremendous."

Wrong. It's a terrible production, stale and lifeless. Max and Laura are awful.

I love Grease. But not inferior productions, which this one sounds to be.

Thanks for being honest guys! It sounds as though I'm not missing out on much, which I guess is good! Hopefully it gets better somehow!
