Grease live in singapore.


Linna's "Snuggles" even came along!
Last night, my mother-in-law, 2.5-year-old, and I had a girl's night out at Marina Bay Sands, while Papa Saigh and his dad checked out the casino. Papa Saigh's parents are visiting us from the Minnesota. The girls attended the opening night of Grease and it was a blast! The music and dancing were fantastic, and the cast did a great job making us laugh. Although I wouldn't recommend this show for kids (there is some strong language and sexual references), our 2.5-year-old had a good time dancing to the music, and she did a pretty good job staying quiet during the "quiet scenes". We went to the 8 p.m. show, and it was over by 10:30 p.m. Late night for the little one, but she's still napping 2-3 hours in the afternoon, so she's normally up until 10 p.m. anyway. Plus, kids under three years old get in free if they sit on an adult's lap.

There were some slow parts in the show that dragged on a bit longer than they needed too, but for the most part this show was incredibly entertaining! The cast is so talented when it comes to their singing, dancing, and acting skills. "Grease Lightnin'" was by far my favorite musical number, along with the closing "You're The One That I Want" number, as well as the curtain call. In my opinion, Grease was a MUCH better production than Dirty Dancing that we saw at Marina Bay Sands last year, and that was a pretty good show. If you're looking for a fun night out, where you'll be entertained for almost three hours with great music that you know and love, go see Grease while you still can. Both my mother-in-law and I highly recommend this one!

ABOUT THE SHOW:

Grease blazes into town, direct from a sell-out tour of Australia. This new multi-million dollar production is packed with explosive energy and features an international cast, dance moves, 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 in 1972, it was followed by the 1978 hit movie starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John, which went on to become the highest grossing movie-musical of all time. Grease has triumphed across the globe, with its irresistible mix of adolescent angst, vibrant physicality and 1950s pop culture.
