Grease, Tell Me More, Tell Me More: Stories from the Broadway Phenomenon That Started It All

Wonderful book! It covers the musical from its conception to when it closed its original run on Broadway. It's full of backstage stories, not just about the Broadway run, but the tours, including the bus and truck tours. Lots of stories from lots of different cast members, including understudies. Maybe one small nitpick: not many stories from musicians or backstage crew (though there's a little bit).

This book is a collection of memories from the people who were involved with Grease from its inception to the final show. It talks about the casting, performances, problems, the tours, and camaraderie experienced by the directors, producers, and performers. Some of the aspects were funny, some were actually painful, and some dangerous. Broken bones during the performances happened more than once. Some cast members were held up at their hotel. Some members showed up stoned. Well, it was a show about the greasers! It’s an entertaining and quick read, and you’ll probably learn more about the tours then you really want to know. Just don’t expect anything about the movie - it didn’t make the cut.

This was an amazing account of the history of the original production. A hard to put down multi-personal memoir!!!!
