Casting for the tour is yet to be announced.

The musical tells the story of leather-clad greaser Danny and girl-next-door Sandy, whose whirlwind summer romance is tested when they are unexpectedly reunited at Rydell High.

Featuring one of the most recognisable scores in musical theatre, the show includes hit songs such as Summer Nights, Greased Lightnin’, Hopelessly Devoted to You and You’re the One That I Want.

This new touring production is produced by Colin Ingram for InTheatre Productions and Curve.
