Rydell High's Pink Ladies and T-Birds hit the stage with Grease

Break out your pink and leather jackets for an electrifying evening as Schaumburg Park District's Putting on Productions presents Grease.

Grease, presented by special arrangement with SAMUEL FRENCH, INC., will be performed July 18-21 at the Community Recreation Center, 505 N. Springinsguth Road.

Set in 1959 at fictional Rydell High School, the musical incorporates book, music and lyrics by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey. Working-class teenagers navigate the complexities of peer pressure, politics, personal core values and love.

Upcoming performances include:

• 7 p.m., Thursday, July 18
