Franklin High School Theatre presents Grease, the rollicking musical that is both a homage to the idealism of the fifties and a satire of high schoolers’ age-old desire to be rebellious and provocative.
The original Broadway show spawned a hit movie in 1978 and features classic songs such as Summer Nights, Greased Lightnin’, We Go Together, and Hopelessly Devoted.
More than 60 students are performing or assisting with the show, which is being directed by Mark Saltalamachia.
The show opens at 7 p.m., Thursday, April 19, and runs through Monday, April 23, at the auditorium at Franklin High School, 810 Hillsboro Road in Franklin.
All show times are 7 p.m., except Sunday, April 22, when the matinee starts at 2 p.m. Tickets are $10 for adults and $8 for students and can be purchased at the door.
