The iconic movie-musical returns to the West End in David Gilmore's gorgeously Technicolor production of Grease, which had a seven-year run in the 1990s. Back at the Piccadilly Theatre, it's pretty much a note-for-note remake of the movie and though it misses some of John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John's charm, it more than makes up for it in energetic dance set-pieces, great singing and wonderful sets and costumes. Above all, it serves as a reminder of just how wonderful the over-familiar songs are, bringing fresh life to Grease Is The Word, You're The One That I Want, Greased Lightning, Hopelessly Devoted To You and Sandy. A fantastic piece of retro 1950s fun.About Piccadilly Theatre
A simple exterior conceals this grandiose Art Deco theatre, whose huge auditorium is decorated in shocking pink. Gold and green are the dominant colours of the bars and foyer of the Piccadilly Theatre, with beautiful original light fittings. A patchy production history has included few major hits.
