Set in the swingin’ halls of Rydell High, Grease The Musical is a whirlwind of teenage dreams, heartbreak, and hair gel.

With its timeless message of love, identity, and self-expression, it’s as relevant today as ever; served up with jukebox energy and a dash of rebel spirit.

So, whether you’re hopelessly devoted or brand new to the Pink Ladies and T-Birds, this is your chance to catch the musical that defined a generation.

With just 10 performances, tickets are selling faster than a drag race at Thunder Road.

Grease is the word; and Dubai is ready. Are you?
