Grease

Grease is lighting up the stage at the Paramount Theater in Farmville, bringing a lively spark to the heart of small-town life. This production features local talent—your neighbors, former classmates, and friends—who grew up singing these songs, watching this story, and dreaming of performing it in their hometown.

Directed by Kevin Lee, this production is more than just a show—it’s a heartfelt tribute to community, nostalgia, and the enduring magic of live theater. With iconic music, electrifying dance numbers choreographed by our own Dance Unlimited’s Ashlie Smith, and a timeless story of friendship and first love, Grease demonstrates that you don’t need a big city to deliver a show-stopping performance. Experience the unforgettable blend of small-town spirit and big-stage talent at the Paramount Theater in Farmville.

“Grease” is presented by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc., a Concord Theatricals Company. www.concordtheatricals.com
