Those Summer Nights…

Grease (film)

You might be familiar with the Oaks Theater because they have been showing horror films this halloween season.  Well the Oaks theater is back with even movie entertainment – the Grease Sing-A-Long.  For a certain segment of the movie viewing population – I could see how this could also be scarier than a horror film – but I am betting that there are some Grease fans in Pittsburgh.

The Oaks Theater – which is located in Oakmont – is bringing the Grease sing-a-long to Pittsburgh in a big way.

A newly restored print brings the highest-grossing musical of all time, GREASE (1978), to the big screen as a sing-a-long. Join Danny and Sandy with your own crew of T-Birds and Pink Ladies for a carnival ride back to those amazing summer nights!

Come to our Friday or Saturday 7:30 performances dressed as your favorite character and be entered into a drawing to win some nifty Grease-themed prizes.

And remember, this is a sing-a-long, so audience participation is always encouraged. Bring friends, have fun and sing your heart out!

Willy Wonka at the Oaks Theater – Friday and Saturday

via theoakstheater.com

Well I am glad to see that this is showing when they are usually showing horror movies because I still think that Willy Wonka is one of the scariest movies ever – the poor kids just want to eat some candy and then they vanish.
But if you love this movie then you can head to The Oaks Theater in Oakmont – Friday at 10pm or Saturday at Midnight. They will be showing the original 1971 print.
