North Kingstown Town Beach

West Bay Community Theater to present “GREASE” – IN CONCERT, One Night Only
North Kingstown, RI – West Bay Community Theater will present an in-concert production of the classic 50’s musical GREASE on Saturday, August 17th at 7:30pm on the North Kingstown Town Beach.
This production of GREASE-IN CONCERT is music-focused, with minimal staging, in addition to multimedia support (live video enhancement and show-related imagery). All music will be live with no pre-recorded and/or backing tracks. WBCT’s production has secured the rights to all of the “movie songs” (songs such as “Grease”, “You’re the One That I Want” and “Hopelessly Devoted to You” that are not part of the original stage version), offering a full-on GREASE experience!
For those who have attended West Bay’s summer productions (HAIR, CABARET), they know what a special experience a WBCT show on the beach can be. Moonlight on the water, food trucks, a festive audience, and some of the best voices in local theater all in one special evening in Wickford. Audience members are encouraged to bring lawn chairs, blankets, and anything else to make an August night on the beach comfortable. For this show, WBCT encourages audience members to dress for the period and if your costume is cool enough for the Pink Ladies and the Burger Palace Boys, you may even win a prize!
WBCT President Terry Shea says, “Last summer’s production of CABARET-IN-CONCERT was a game changer for us. Not only did we draw a record audience for one of our shows (well over 300 attended and ticket sales are already trending to go higher than that) we introduced the addition of 4 large video screens across the expanse of the lawn. This multimedia enhancement gives everyone a chance to see performers’ faces close up as well as view imagery that will enhance the concert setting and draw everyone into the world of this show.” 
Alongside this rock concert-meets-musical theater setting, audience members will be able to take advantage of two of the region’s award-winning food trucks, Gansett Poke and Mumsies Ice Cream. Also on hand for burgers, hot dogs and more is NK beach’s own Saugy Shack. There will also be themed gift basket auctions and a 50/50 raffle. 
And while the “in-concert” setting means the focus is more on the music than the script, be ensured that there is enough choreography and production value to make this show a fully satisfying night at the theater. Fans of this classic musical are in for a real treat as GREASE gets the unique WBCT treatment.

Book, Music, and Lyrics by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey
Additional music/lyrics by: John Farrar / Louis St. Louis, Scott Simon / Barry Alan Gibb
Directed by Brad Kirton

The Contemporary Theater Company

Don Winslow's official book tour may be over, but he is returning for a special hometown event with us this summer. Joining Don is local author Greg McLaughlin, author of the popular Matunuck series of novels. Listening in on a conversation between two authors is always nothing short of fascinating, and with these two authors with such strong local ties, it's sure to be an entertaining evening. Don and Greg will talk about their books, about writing, and will most likely have a lot to say about their South Kingstown and Matunuck memories. Following the authors' discussion, we'll have time for Q&amp;A, and copies of both Don’s and Greg’s books will be available for purchase and signing. Hope you can join us for this fun closing event of our 2024 Summer Author Series. This is a ticketed event. Tickets can be purchased at <a href="https://donwgregm_wakefieldbooks.eventbrite.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://donwgregm_wakefieldbooks.eventbrite.com</a>
