GREASE
Dementia Friendly Screening in partnership with The White Bus
Sunday 1 Jun 2025 @ 2:30pm
This well-known and loved classic film hopes to engage and entertain our customers, aimed towards those living with dementia, together with their carers or families. Enjoying films that may feel familiar from earlier stages in life, and that involve music, singing and exciting visuals, are believed to be enriching experiences for those living with dementia.
Join us in our relaxed, family friendly atmosphere at the Palace Theatre in our auditorium. Relaxed screenings and performances are intended to make coming to the theatre more accessible, meaning we do not worry about noise level during the screening, customers are free to move between the auditorium and our foyer spaces, we provide a ‘chill out’ zone and refreshments available for purchasing.
Relaxed screenings and performances are becoming more commonly known amongst organisations and individuals committed to providing greater accessibility to the arts for those who benefit from a more relaxed viewing experience. This can include those with learning and sensory disabilities, children, and young people together with their families, those living with dementia, and adults with SEN or additional needs.
About the film:
Grease is a musical about teens in love in the 1950s. The film depicts the lives of greaser Danny Zuko (John Travolta) and Australian transfer student Sandy Olsson (Olivia Newton-John), who develop an attraction for each other during a summer romance. The two main characters are the primary love story and the core of a great ensemble cast. The film is set in the doo-wop fifties and centres on a group of high school seniors who share the joys and concerns of all teenagers.
