Young Performer's Community Theater of Mason

 

Less Greasy...

 

Our fall 2006 production was the kinder / gentler / less controversial "school version" of Grease.  The "school version" is based on the original full version of Grease, but is shorter and more suitable in content for teens and pre-teens.  This abridged version retains the fun-loving spirit and immortal songs that made Grease a favorite among rock and roll fans of all ages.  Four performances were held over October 6-8 at the Mason High School and Community Center Theater.

 

Award Winning

 

Acting Up's production of Gease received 29 Orchid Nominations and 10 Orchid Awards.
