Characters Danny Zuko: The leader of the “Greasers.” Well-built, nice-looking, with an air of cool and easy charm.

Sandy Dumbrowski: Danny’s love interest. Sweet, wholesome, naive, cute, the Sandra Dee of the ‘Gidget’ movies.

The Pink Ladies: The club-jacketed, gum-chewing, hip-swinging girls gang that hangs out with the Greasers.

• Betty Rizzo: Leader of the Pink Ladies. Tough, sarcastic, and outspoken, but vulnerable.

• Frenchy: A dreamer. Good-natured and dumb. Fussy about her appearance, especially her hair. She can’t wait to finish high school so she can be a beautician.

• Marty: The ‘beauty’ of the Pink Ladies. Looks older than the other girls and tries to act sophisticted but betrays her age when she opens her mouth.

• Jan: Loud and pushy with the girls but shy with boys.

The Greasers: A super-cool, hardlooking group of high school wheeler-dealers...or so they think.

• Kenickie: Second in command. Tough looking, tattooed, surly; avoids any show of softness and has an off-beat sense of humor.

• Doody: Youngest of the guys. Small, boyish, open, wih a disarming smile and a hero-worshiping attitude toward the other guys. He plays the guitar.

• Roger: The ‘anything-for-a-laugh’ type. Full of mischief, half-baked schemes and ideas. A clown who enjoys putting other people on.

• Sonny LaTierri: Italian-looking, with shiny black hair and dark olive skin. A braggart and wheeler-dealer who thinks he is a real lady-killer.

Patty Simcox: Typical cheerleader at a a middle-class American public high school.

Catty but in a All-American girl sort of way.

Cha-Cha DiGregorio: Slovenly and loud-mouthed. Takes pride in bieng the ‘best dancer at St. Bernadettes’.

Eugene: Class valedictorian. Physically arkward, smug and pompus but guillable.

Vince Fontaine: Radio disc jockey. slick, egotistical, fast-talking and a veteren Greaser.

Johnny Casino: A Greaser student at Rydell who leads a rock ‘n’ roll band and thinks of himself as a teen idol.

Teen Angel: A good-looking, falsetto-voiced, Fabian-look-alike.

Miss Lynch: An old maid English teacher.

“If you make people think they’re thinking, they’ll love you; but if you really make them think, they’ll hate you.” In short, entertainment fulfills our expectations. Art, on the other hand, makes no compromise for public taste as it inspires us to consider life’s complexities and ambiguities. Art is the opposition testing the strength of societal and cultural values-values that are thoughtlessly adopted by the mass of individuals living unexamined lives and all who cannot imagine a different way of seeing life.”

William Missouri Downs, The Art of Theatre: A Concise Introduction

GABY WASHINGTON (Chorus) This is Gaby’s first performance with Mill Creek Theatre.
