This unprepossessing sequel to the massive John Travolta/Olivia Newton-John hit is notable for a great title song by the Four Tops and a then little-known Michelle Pfeiffer in a clinging short skirt. This is the story of Rydell High School some years on from those halcyon days of drainpipe trousers and stiff petticoats. The problem is that director/choreographer Patricia Birch tries to bring those high steppin', arm-waving innocent production values to an altogether grittier era of emerging 1960s liberalism. It doesn't work, but you could spend the time spotting relatives of the stars - Liza Minnelli's step-sister, Lorna Luft, is the most "distinguished".

It's 1961, two years after the original Grease gang graduated, and there's a new crop of seniors and new members of the coolest cliques on campus, the Pink Ladies and T-Birds. Michael Carrington is the new kid in school - but he's been branded a brainiac. Can he fix up an old motorcycle, don a leather jacket, avoid a rumble with the leader of the T-Birds, and win the heart of Pink Lady Stephanie?
