IM SO HAPPY OLIVIA IS FINALLY GETTING THE RECOGNITION SHE DESERVES!! AMAZING CASTING! LIV IS SO SO TALENTED! i saw her in waitress and heathers and she blew me away- so glad she is now starring as the main role!

[@islastokes823]

Yessssss ! Couldn’t be happier for her

[@darkangelw8472]

So true. She's amazing

IM SO PROUD OF OLIVIAAAAA

[@CareyTsui]

Classic

[@rosepratiwi6532]

Hopelessly devoted to you is a classic and iconic song. And Olivia sang it with her interpretation which I think is beautiful and really describing Sandy.

[@DudaEfroin]

This cast is so amazing! Everyone is incredible! They were absolutely wonderful, every single one of them! Olivia Moore is brilliant as Sandy. So good to see her finally getting the recognition she deserves! West End is lucky to have her as a Leading Lady. Her "Hopelessly Devoted To You" is the most amazing thing I've ever heard. She's a STAR ⭐️👏🏽

Love everyone’s attempt at the American accent. I guess this is England’s revenge to Dick Van Dyke’s accent in Mary Poppins. 😉

[@stoneecoldsober]

I saw it a few weeks ago and Peter Andre's American accent is awful. It was so bad it was funny 🤣

Grease, will forever be at the Dominion Theatre I guess. I watched Grease in 1996, and they were at the same theatre back then as well

[@hannahp7855]

Backing track and vocals used. Leads are singing live but easy to tell that the backing vocals are not live. Frenchy line ‘love at first sight’ sounds very much like Eloise Davies who wasn’t performing, her understudy doesn’t sound like that.

[@benholmes8870]

yeah, not surprised though considering how notorious west end live is for having mic and sound problems 24/7

[@jamievincent4829]

I want story house in Chester to make me my own grease the musical but I need a lady with blonde hair to play as sandy and for me I want to play as Danny Zuko in it and I want some friends are T birds and same for Sandy she wants some friends are pink ladies

that's it she does need a good life and same for us but we can think about her in our dreams and in our heads as well but we all know she is here for us down in our hearts and that's where she belongs but lets see how the life goes and lets enjoy life together

[@diamonddonut]

I like this performance of summer nights... very interesting actually :))) but the girl in @05:04 i think the producer (or whoever responsible) made a mistake, he gave the girl this song without concerning about her vocal range, he should've lowered the key so she can not stress her vocals and more lives the song rather than making finishing the song and hit the high notes a mission that she should accomplished!

[@trickwillis]

this is just my first impression it seems casting was chosen on talent rather then looks of the traditional blonde Sandy & jet black hair Danny Zuko, both of whom sing wonderfully and are great BUT why the heck is there an actor lookin like traditional Danny right next to him and a classic sandy-blonde Sandy over her shoulder!?! it’s about as odd a directing choice as it is to have the girls ensemble join the Grease Lighting dance.

[@DudaEfroin]

This cast was chosen on talent, and lot more than that. Gone are the days when actors were chosen by "looks". Everyone is exactly where they should be. This is not the movie, this is the musical. There is no such thing as "Traditional Danny" or "Classic Sandy", because they are not Olivia Newton John or John Travolta. These are Olivia Moore and Dan Patridge. And the story doesn't change because of their hair color. It's still Grease and it's still amazing. They are just other actors that can portray their characters brilliantly. And the woman over Sandy's shoulder is her understudy, Ellie Kingdon, who I bet is incredibly amazing as Sandy too and not because of her hair colour. 😉

[@booksvsmovies]

The vast majority of West End shows have people wearing wigs anyway so hair color really doesn’t matter

[@antheiheiant]

You might be the first person to ever complain that people were cast because of their talent. Also the girls have been in the Greased Lightning dance for like a really long time now.. It's not the 90s anymore. 😂

[@trickwillis]

@@DudaEfroin I wasn’t complaining about the casting on talent, the remark is about the overtop attempt of two other cast members who resemble Olivia and John

[@elizabeth5985]

"Did she put up a fight?" has to go. Seriously? Do I even have to say it? Are you kidding me? It's disgusting. I don't care if a jerk in the show is saying it. It's being said to make the audience laugh and it is NOT funny. We know better now. Anyway, I grew up with this. I was 13 when the movie with John Travolta and Olivia Newton John came out, perfect age. I played the record (yes, the vinyl record) over and over and over. So I feel qualified to make an observation: I feel like we're going backwards with musicals. The movie was actually more "real" than this is. They're playing "characters" which is what I used to hate about musicals when I was young: it wasn't real acting to me, it wasn't people having real feelings, it was people SHOWING and INDICATING their feelings instead of feeling them. Things changed with musicals like In the Heights and even Wicked, a show about witches and munchkins, but the actors are REALLY feeling those emotions which makes has made it such a long running hit.
