Grease
EmilyAnn Theater
May 28-June 20
www.emilyann.orgIt is 1959 and Rydell high is filled with rebellious, thrill-loving
students. In the midst of this scene, Sandy Dumbrowski enters as the new
girl in school. It turns out that she and the leader of the Burger
Palace Boys gang, Danny Zuko, have had a brief love affair the summer
before. As the show goes on, the students at Rydell High have to deal
with love, gang violence, peer pressure, and friendship all while
dancing and singing to some of the most beloved songs from the 1950's.

 Over the last 6 years our office manager at kidsActing has ensured that everything runs smoothly: she registers all the kids for
class, she answers any questions you might have about practically
anything, she helps reunite kids with lost items. She calls it "fun crazy"!
She doesn't really call herself a theater goer but she said her favorite play, by far, was the first she saw at kidsActing, Velveteen Rabbit. "It was the first production
I came to see when I started working here. It was very touching-
although- I do get embarrassed when I cry in public, which of course- I
did"
