Has anybody seen the first episide of the auditions for the Broadway production of Grease? It’s American Idol with a twist – these kids have to dance and act, too.

I watched it last night. Grease is my all-time favourite musical. I love everything about it – the characters, the music, the costumes. The story is a cliche good girl/bad boy romance, filled with dialogue with more corn than an Iowa cornfield. But I don’t care.

Now, some of these kids are NOT Sandy and Danny. They just aren’t. But still … they’re out there going after their dreams. And you can’t fault anybody for doing that. Most of us have dreams we wish we’d pursued. I know I do. Do you?
