<P> American Theater Company artistic director P.J. Paparelli and Grease co-creator Jim Jacobs staged the restored original version of Grease on Chicago's North Side, starting on April 21, 2011 and ending on August 21, to coincide with the fortieth anniversary of the musical's debut . This was a revival of the original 1971 version first staged at the old Kingston Mines Theatre in Chicago . Procuring the rights to the original music was, for the most part, easy, while certain legal issues were preventing this production from being staged . </P> <P> This production went on to win' Best Production--Musical' at the 2011 Equity Joseph Jefferson Awards on November 7, 2011 . The Original Revival Cast reconvened to perform their a cappella version of "We Go Together," the finale to Act 1 in the production . Despite many nominations and personal wins for performers and designers, this is the first time in the storied history of "Grease" that the show itself has actually won an award . </P> <P> Produced by The Gordon Frost Organization, the revival version of the show opened at Brisbane's Lyric Theatre on August 27, 2013 before heading on an Australian tour . It is the first time Grease has been performed in Australia in a Proscenium Arch theatre (as opposed to an Arena Tour) in 22 years . The tour played seasons in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Hobart, Singapore, Perth and Adelaide . After tickets were initially released, the first season playing Brisbane was almost immediately extended due to strong ticket sales . The cast included Rob Mills (Danny), Gretel Scarlett (Sandy), Anthony Callea (Johnny Casino), Stephen Mahy (Kenickie), Lucy Maunder (Rizzo), Todd McKenney (Teen Angel), and Bert Newton as Vince Fontaine . </P> <P> In 2016, Grease premiered on Royal Caribbean's Harmony of the Seas and Independence of the Seas .
