About the Show

A parody musical spoofing Grease with new lyrics by Billy Recce and direction by Jack Plotnick.

Vape! The Grease Parody reimagines the beloved 1950s high school musical through the lens of modern pop culture. Set in a world where cliques feud over followers instead of drag races, the show affectionately lampoons the familiar tropes, innuendos, and romances that made Grease iconic. The story trades in pomade for vape pens and TikTok fame, blending nostalgia with satire to explore how teenage coolness evolves—but never quite disappears.

The production is directed by Jack Plotnick (Disaster!, Space Station 76) and choreographed by Ashley Marinelli (The Lightning Thief national tour).
