Article: Brisbane, You Better Shape Up! - Crossroads Live

Producers of the all-new and electrifying production of GREASE are delighted to announce that tickets to the beloved musical, opening at QPAC in January, will go on sale to the general public at 9am on Friday 3 May.

“Heeelllooooo Brisvegas!!! Brisbane in summer is the hottest place to be and I guarantee GREASE will be the hottest ticket in town this summer! This is an all new and electrifying production with all the original songs you know and love and I can’t wait to see you all there for some Summer Lovin’,” said GREASE’s Marcia Hines.

Audiences are loving the brand-new production of GREASE, which opened on New Year's Eve in Melbourne, with critics calling it “close to perfection” (Broadway World) and a “bucket list production that should not be missed” (Theatre Matters).  The hit musical is currently playing at Sydney’s Capitol Theatre before it opens in Perth from 30 June and Adelaide from September.

GREASE features an all-new set, dazzling costumes and all those unforgettable songs from the movie, including Summer Nights, Sandy, Hopelessly Devoted to You, You’re The One That I Want, Greased Lightnin’, and Grease is the Word.

Since the show’s Broadway premiere and the hit movie starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John – which went on to become the highest grossing movie-musical of all time – the Tony Award nominated GREASE has triumphed across the globe, with its irresistible mix of adolescent angst, vibrant physicality and 1950s pop culture.

Produced by QPAC and Prospero Arts, Jersey Boys  is the inspiring rags-to-riches tale of The Four Seasons. When Frankie Valli, Bob Gaudio, Tommy DeVito, and Nick Massi met, they were just four New Jersey teens singing together under street lamps, scraping for gigs and money in their working-class neighborhood. As the quartet rises to international stardom, they celebrate the highs and endure the lows that go hand-in-hand with fame. Each member of the group takes a turn narrating events, illustrating how a ragtag group of guys from New Jersey -- and their decades-long friendships -- became music history. Directed by Martin Croft, this semi staged concert was stunning. Croft's ingenious talent shines through this this stellar production; the design and blocking was simple a...
