Greasy Memories

Ok, I spent today figuring out the scanner software problem. Resolution #37 completed! I don't feel like blogging about the disgustingly inaccurate and stereotype promoting "news" show on International Adoption presented by Paula Zahn last night.
Instead I'm going to have fun reveling in the glory days of High School while also recognizing a show on tomorrow night. A show I'm sure will be a huge success...(snicker)..."You're the One that I (We?) Want." I was into drama in HS and after moving my senior year, was pleased to find out that I could audition for Grease. Luckily that year a better singer didn't beat me out! So here are a few scary photos to prove I was in this very low key production! The play version doesn't include "You're the One that I Want," that was written for the movie. So we had to screech through a song called "All Choked Up" instead. A let down for actors and audience for sure!!

I obviously didn't get enough Grease that year. After college I worked front of house for Grease at the Dominion Theatre in London. Debbie Gibson and Craig McLachlan (Australian dude, right Lee-Anne?)starred. Ahhh, you've just gotta love Grease!
Ok, I'm sharing my *very cool* scrapbooked photos with y'all. Be kind! =)


Summer niiigghts!
Rizzo tellin' Sandy off. Rizzo had a great voice, but not the requisite short black hair!
All Choked Up. Sounded that way! My Danny was a junior! Ewwww! Oh and yes, that's me trying a bit too hard to look sexy! Final night thank yous. Notice I kept the leather jacket around my bum the whole time!! And look at the hair! Can you say perm outta control?!

My 9 year old loved the new reality show! She couldn't wait to watch the movie with me! Grease is the Word!
