Iconic 1970s flick Grease is set for a woke TV re-boot that will see the classic musical center itself around a multicultural, all-female lineup to explore 'sexual orientation, gender expression and racial identity'.
Family favorite tunes will be re-sung alongside new musical numbers including one about white supremacy, while the 1950s student population at Rydell High School will be re-filled with a varied mix of LGBT and black high schoolers unseen in the 1978 hit.
Set in 1954, 'Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies' will be a prequel to the original film, showing how the girl-gang counterpart to Danny Zuko's T-Birds was founded.

Stupidity.
It was bad enough when the original film moved the setting from NW Chicago to Los Angeles.
Who wants to hear songs about white supremacy?
Never got into the groove and hoopla of the contemporary stuff. Posters, Soundtracks, Jesus Freaks...
Community Theater can be funny. Quality Film adaptations of classics are kinda cool.
There’s no “must see” bucket list on my refrigerator. My ex and two other divas sang background with Sarah Brightman at a University performance that was neat. Branagh does a good Henry V...
Grease? Pshaw!
Gilbert and Sullivan? Wodehouse? Sure, but there’s no need to leave the house, and my whirly-pop stands at the ready!
Gonna need a biologist for all that.
I suspect as a group they're more 'thieves' than 'creative '...
Money laundering.
I won’t be watching.
Protected by government, More annoyance from the mentally ill
I assume by “multicultural” they mean no whites allowed, and by “all female” they mean men dressing as women.
It'll be retitled 'My Birthing Parent the Car'. 🤓
Instead of Grease, it will be titled ‘Barf’! 🤓
The original Grease was fun-loving and sweet. The Left has no imagination, no humor, no affection, and must ruin everything we look upon with fondness. They have to destroy everything with their forced ideology. Their contempt is particularly aimed at the 1950s, where there was innocence, family, love, moms who cared for their family more than a stupid job, and people went to church. Oh, and TV shows and movies that were actually good and memorable, unlike the trash they spew out.
🙄
The last thing I want to see is a Tranny sing “Beauty School Dropout…”
Well, the “grease” in this show isn’t for their hair...
/HURL CHUNKS!
Sure, because Stephen Spielberg’s West Side Story did so well.
Oh, that grease. Just finished a story how people are stealing used cooking oil The recyclers are paying $5.00 a gallon.
