The show was originally written and staged in Chicago and is set in 1959 at fictional Rydell High School, which was based on Taft High School in Chicago and named after rock singer Bobby Rydell. The story follows working-class teenagers, known as Greasers, and their peers, as they navigate friendship, love, and teenage rebellion. Familiar songs include “Summer Nights,” “You’re the One That I Want,” “We Got Together,” and “Greased Lightning.”
We invite all new National Honor Society members and their families to the Induction Ceremony on Wednesday!
