One of Vancouver’s most important legal events and a valued tradition, The Lawyer Show is a fundraiser for two of Vancouver’s most cherished theatre institutions: Carousel Theatre for Young People and Touchstone Theatre. Over thirty of Vancouver’s top law professionals are waxing nostalgic in this year’s sold-out production of the hit Broadway musical Grease.
The Lawyer Show cast features over 30 lawyers from all walks of legal life - from partners in large corporate firms to retired practitioners. For a complete list of the cast and their legal affiliations go to: http://www.carouseltheatre.ca/production/lawyershow/
About Grease
It’s 1959, and Rydell High School’s senior class is in rare form. The too-cool-for-school “Burger Palace Boys” are stealing hub-caps and acting tough and their gum-snapping, chain-smoking “Pink Ladies” are looking hot in bobby sox and pedal pushers. The 1950s high school dream is about to explode in this rollicking musical that is both an homage to the idealism of the fifties and a satire of high schoolers’ age-old desire to be provocative and rebellious. Starting off with an eight-year Broadway run, Grease is among the world’s most popular musicals and has a cult-like following.
