SOUNDS LIKE GREASE TO US

Time for some Summer Lovin’ to warm up this winter – the iconic musical Grease is celebrating 40 years of inspiring Halloween costumes, jive moves and the archetypal teenage high school movie, and Cinema Akil is screening a sing-along edition of the classic tomorrow.

We hope you’ve started swotting the lyrics to Greased Lightning and Beauty School Dropout, and if that sounds like Greek to you, let us sum up the plot of the most successful musical of all times: John Travolta is Danny Zuko, the leather-clad resident bad boy who leads a double life. Olivia Newton-John is the wholesome transfer student Sandy Olsson, and the pair share an idyllic summer romance. But when their paths cross again in school, adventure and high-school hijinks follow. At Alserkal Avenue, show starts at 5pm; tickets from Dh52, visit cinemaakil.com.
