"Grease" Musical Needs Teenagers
Seeking talent ages 16 and up for "Grease" Musical. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Here is Rydell High’s senior class of 1959: duck-tailed, hot-rodding “Burger Palace Boys’ and their gum-snapping, hip-shaking “Pink Ladies” in bobby sox and pedal pushers, evoking the look and sound of the 1950s in this rollicking musical. Head “greaser” Danny Zuko and new (good) girl Sandy Dumbrowski try to relive the high romance of their “Summer Nights” as the rest of the gang sings and dances its way through such songs as “Greased Lightnin’,” “It’s Raining on Prom Night” and “Alone at the Drive-In Movie,” recalling the music of Buddy Holly, Little Richard and Elvis Presley that became the soundtrack of a generation. Additional info: Actors should prepare their best 16-32 bars (roughly 60-90 seconds) in the style of, or from, the show. Bring sheet music appropriately marked and in the right key. An accompanist will be provided. Please bring a headshot/resume with you. Callbacks will take place, as needed, on Sunday, June 14, 2026. Rehearsals will begin on/about June 29, 2026. Rehearsals will take place weekday evenings and weekends during the day, with at least one day off per week. Please be prepared to list any conflicts from June 29 to August 5, 2026. The performance dates are August 6-23, 2026, Thursdays-Saturdays at 7:30 PM, and Saturdays and Sundays at 2:30 PM. If interested, please apply.
16 roles
(Range: tenor, D4–B5) The leader of the Burger Palace Boys; good-looking, strong and confident, with an air of easy-going charm.
(Range: Soprano, A3–F#5) New girl in town; sweet, wholesome, naive, cute, and innocent.
(Range:Alto A3–C5) Leader of the Pink Ladies; tough, sarcastic, and outspoken but vulnerable.
(Range: Alto, A3–D5) A dreamer; good-natured but not too smart, she is heavily made up, fussy about her appearance, particularly her hair. She can’t wait to finish high school so she can be a beautician.
(Range Alto, C4–C5) The ‘beauty’ of the Pink Ladies; pretty and looks older than the other girls, but betrays her real age when she opens her mouth. She tries to act sophisticated.
(Range: Alto, A3-C5) Funny, loud, compulsive eater, and awkward member of the Pink Ladies. Loud and pushy with the girls, but shy with boys.
(Range: Tenor, D4-A5) The youngest of the guys; small, boyish, and open, with a disarming smile and a hero-worshipping attitude towards the other guys. Guitar skills a plus.
High School Teen (Range: Tenor, C4–F5) The second in command of the Burger Palace Boys; tough-looking, tattooed, surly, and avoids any show of softness. He has an offbeat sense of humor.
(Range: baritone, G3–A5) A member of the Burger Palace Boys; funny Italian-American, he is a braggart and wheeler-dealer who thinks he’s a real lady-killer
(Range: Tenor, D4-A5) The anything-for-a-laugh stocky type of boy; a clown who enjoys winding people up, he is full of mischief and is always dreaming up half-baked schemes and ideas.
(Range: Alto, C4–C5) The best dancer at St. Bernadette’s; a loud mouth, she wins the dancing competition with Danny.
(Range: Tenor, A3–E5) The class valedictorian; physically awkward, with weak eyes and a high-pitched voice. He’s a typical ‘apple-polisher’ – both smug and pompous, but gullible.
(Range: Tenor, G4-E5) All-American, rock-star “greaser” student at Rydell High, whose real name is Clarence.
(Range: Alto, D4-A4) A typical cheerleader; attractive, athletic, sure-of-herself, but can be given to bursts of disconcerting enthusiasm. She’s a bit of a pain and unpopular with the Pink Ladies, and can twirl a baton.
The club-jacketed, gum-chewing, hip-swinging girls’ gang who hang around with the Burger Palace Boys.
A super-cool, DA-haired, hard-looking group of high school wheeler-dealers… or so they think.
