Grease: The Musical
Wednesday 29 January 2025
11:00 am—5:00 pm
Grease is back in an all-new production that promises to be slicker, sexier, and more electrifying than ever before!
It’s one of the world’s most iconic and loved musicals and nothing beats the feeling you get, going back to Rydell High. Danny, Sandy, Kenickie, Rizzo and the whole gang are back to give you a night out, like only Grease can.
Witness rising stars Fabian Andrés (Danny) and Annelise Hall (Sandy) take on two of the most iconic roles and light up the stage alongside an all-star cast. Get ready to be transported to a world of high school romance, unforgettable music, and pure, unadulterated fun!
Australia’s own Patti Newton will be ringing the school bell as the much-loved Miss Lynch, Jay Laga’aia is set to sizzle as Vince Fontaine and the incomparable Paulini will bring Teen Angel to life in this multi-million-dollar production. Duration: approximately 2 hours 15 minutes
U3A has secured seats with great discounted tickets for seniors and pensioners: holders of government-issued Senior card or Pensioner card: $75
No Coach Transport:To save on costs for this social event, we will make our own way to QPAC by train. I will advise train schedules closer to the day, as we cannot rely on current timings to be the same in January. Alternatively, you may prefer to travel in your own car or car pool and park in the car park near the venue and share parking costs. I will also advise meeting time and place so we can enjoy lunch prior to the show.
Important Note: These tickets will be offered to members only, plus one partner. You will need to bring your concession cards to the venue to show at admission, however you do not need to bring this identification to the U3A office when making payment.
Don’t delay, as these tickets will sell very quickly!

Booking procedures
From October 2024, members must book and pay online by following the link provided for each trip. There is no longer a facility at the campus office to register or make payments for trips.
Once the booking and payment is confirmed, then you are registered for the bus trip. Tickets will no longer be issued, as happened in the previous manual system.
Our Social Activities Coordinator will have a list of all members who have booked and paid and will check your names against the list on the day of the bus trip.
