Grease is a script high school teachers see all the time. Where smart girls decide the best way to keep the ‘bad boys’ they can’t resist on the leash is to mirror them. Some do it for an entire lifetime, consoling themselves with ‘boys will be boys’ slogans, as the boys grow fat from beer, stuck in a permanent adolescence. Vale Olivia. I knew this soundtrack inside out as a kid, Xanadu too (great songs from ELO). Did people know Barry Gibb wrote the theme song for Grease?
