Why does basically no one stage the original 1971 version of Grease even though it's been reconstructed?
I just find it odd, the original Grease is a really good show, akin to West Side Story, and in my personal opinion, I think it's better than the movie, and the version of the show that came after it got transfered over to New York
I really liked the gritty and real musical about gang violence, class divides, and teenage pregnancy. And how it was more of a ensemble show rather than just having Danny and Sandy take the spotlight, shining more plot threads with Miller (replaced with Kenickie in the movie, although Kenickie was a member of the gang in the original as well), Rizzo, and other characters
