Mercer Island High School (MIHS) will become 1950s Rydell High School for a while during the drama department’s upcoming production of “Grease.”
Penned by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey, the Katy Ramsey-directed “Grease” will light up the stage at 7 p.m. from Nov. 10-12 and Nov. 17-19 in the performing arts center.
MIHS drama students brought a scene/song to Islander Middle School drama students for a special performance on Oct. 27, and the middle-schoolers have been invited to watch the final “Grease” dress rehearsal at 7 p.m. on Nov. 9.
