When and where?

4th March - 31st May 2026 at The Vaults, Waterloo

Time Out says

The Vaults are back doing what they do best. Taking a pop culture classic and gleefully wrecking it. 'Ancient Grease' hurls the leather-jacketed romance of Grease straight into 'Ancient Greece', swapping Sandy and Danny for Zeus and Hera, and things only get messier from there. Expect outrageous choreography, scandalously catchy numbers and a cast of badly behaved gods who know exactly how to work a joke. It’s loud, silly and deliciously rude. With 30% off tickets, this is divine comedy at a very mortal price.
