Description

Join historian Tim Wilsey as he takes us back to the area of 1950`s to celebrate The Movie and Music of Grease! The movie came out in 1978 but The 1950`s was very much alive in Pop Culture in the 70`s. Tim will be discussing how the movie was made, what up and coming stars were considered for lead roles but turned them down and how John Travolta and Olivia Newton John became house hold names. Don't forget the music! The Grease Soundtrack was a big seller and we will relive those great songs that made Grease one of popular musicals in recent years! So slick back that hair, put on your poodle skirts and join us for this walk down memory-Grease Lightning! Be sure to come to this lecture and then join us for a stage production of Grease at the Metropolis in Arlington Heights on October 19th!
