Join us on a day trip to Chanhassen Dinner Theatre to see “Grease” on Saturday, May 31, 2025!

Greased-back hair and leather jackets, ponytails and poodle skirts, fast cars and rock’n’roll, Grease is back at Chanhassen Dinner Theatres!  Experience the nostalgia of high school in the ‘50s – peer pressure, love, and teenage life set against the campy backdrop of Rydell High!  Discover the drama, comedy, and pop-culture satire that has made Grease one of the most popular productions of all time!  Don’t forget the music, with songs like “Summer Nights,” “We Go Together,” “Greased Lightnin’,” “Beauty School Dropout”, and so many others, including the hits you love from the movie.  Have fun as you groove and bop along!
