As part of the 50th anniversary celebrations of Disneyland, California, Disneyland Resort Paris will play host to a smash hit musical set 50 years ago: Grease! During the launch weekend for Wishes, the new sight and sound spectacular that plays in Disneyland Park throughout the Summer months, the two main characters from Grease, Danny (Paul Manuel) and Sandy (Hayley Evetts), announced that this most iconic of musicals will play at Disney Village during the Christmas season. The 50th anniversary of Disneyland will be celebrated throughout 2005, and Disneyland Resort Paris guests can discover this show at the Dome in Disney Village from 14 December 2005 to 8 January 2006.
Originally a musical and then a cult film, Grease takes you back to the golden years of rock'n roll, with its 1950s high school décor, a love story based around the drive-in and the jukebox and, most importantly, that all-important style… Grease tells the story of the emergence of a new culture and evokes the golden years when worries were few.
The music, played by a live band, the story and fantastic choreography combine to create a whirlwind of music, lights and colour. With 25 singers and dancers and 7 musicians onstage, Grease is sure to captivate and delight while taking you back to the happy days of the 1950s.
The timeless songs have become classics and have already won the hearts of countless audiences over the years. You're the One that I Want, We Go Together, and Summer Nights are just a few in the hit line-up.
A favourite of parents yesterday, today Grease is also a hit with teens, proving that the magic of Grease never goes out of style.
