GREASE, Broadway’s beloved and popular musical will be presented at ASHLAND HIGH SCHOOL February 24 through March 13. Witness all the magical rock n’ roll-ridden excitement brought to the big screen in the 1978 motion picture, with a few added elements stapled to the Broadway version. If you were born to hand jive, have ever owned a poodle skirt, consider grease a hair product, or drooled over John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John as “Danny” and “Sandy,” this musical is your ticket to a kitschy, entertaining, and nostalgia-ridden night. All in all a fun show. Grease shows February 25 – 27, March 4-6, and March 11-13. Buy tickets now on-line at SHOWTIX4U.com.

Shakespeare’s The Merry Wives of Windsor is a fast-paced Renaissance comedy of delightful intrigue and misunderstandings. When scheming for some fast cash, Sir John Falstaff attempts to seduce and swindle two Windsor merry wives: Mistress Ford and Mistress Page. When they put their heads together and compare his letters, they plan a practical joke or two to teach the knight a lesson. But Mistress Ford’s husband is a very jealous man and is pumping Falstaff for information of the affair. Meanwhile the Pages’ daughter Anne is besieged by suitors which all adds to the hilarious consequences. AHS presents this delightful comedy, directed by OSF’s Tyrone Wilson, with a cast of 31.
The Merry Wives of Windsor plays for 7 performances only, November 4 ($5. preview), November 5, 6, 7 and 12, 13, 14, at 7:30 p.m. and only one Sunday Matinee on November 15 at 2:00 p.m.
