Grease is the word at St. Gerards

GREASE REALLY was the word when the Transition Years of St Gerard's School put on an excellent performance of the famous musical recently.

With only a few weeks to rehearse the Transition Years wowed audiences with all the old favourites from 'Greased Lightning' to 'Summer Nights' as well as the most famous 'You're The One That I Want' on offer.

Declan Kenney was cool as can be in his portrayal of Zucko, while Emma Toal-Lennon goes from sweet and innocent to the T-Birds dream girl as Sandy.

Keith Carroll strutted his stuff as Kenickie as he gets teased for his new 'old' car 'Greased Lightning and Caoimhe O'Toole shone as the tough and bossy leader of the Pink Ladies, Rizzo.

Not to forget the other T-Birds Doody (Stephen Mulrooney) Roger (David Cregan) and Sonny (Tom Noonan), as well as the famous Pink Ladies Frenchie (Lauren Keating), Jan (Aoife Kenna) and Marty (Alannah O' Caoimh).
