Look forward to hearing

For those of us who only saw it when the movie was originally released, perhaps you could provide a recap of the available parts?

Sandy Olsson - Olivia Newton-John
Rizzo - Stockard Channing
Kenickie - Jeff Conaway
Doody - Barry Pearl
Frenchy - Didi Conn
Principle McGee - Eve Arden

Frenchy was the one who wanted to drop out of school and open up a beauty parlour.

Whatever - loud and ugly right ???
:tears: :tears: :tears:

Anyway... Franck has to be Danny and Lisa would be great as Sandy. Although Dave H would be good too.... as Danny of course !!! Fran would be good as Sandy but people would just think I chose her so I could dance with Bill while she was rehearsing :wink:

This didn't seem to capture the collective imagination after all, Chicklet. I notice that, of the nominations which were made, nobody actually gave a reason.

If I remember rightly, Frenchy was attractive with dark, wavy shoulder length hair. She was "one of the girls", but also quite naive.
Tended to follow, rather than lead ... so if it's true what they say Wendy, (not that I would know) this is probably the only thing you would have trouble with !:wink: :wink:

Olivia Newton John had to be sewn into those leather trousers in the "You're the one that I want" number. I'm sure it would be very interesting to see you in that outfit!

Okie. In answer to all the above.... :D

Twinkle Toes: It's not true. It wasn't done a long time ago, and I'm still totally sweet and innocent. Never been kissed. Honest :rolleyes:

Chicklet: If I'm going to be Sandy, I don't see any reason why Lisa can't be Danny.

Twinkle Toes: Wouldn't anyone? :devil:

Graham: I'm not sure interesting is the right word. Maybe vomit-inducing would be closer :what:

And who does this Frenchy get to dance with then...I mean there must be a cabaret routine at the end, right ?? (Haven't seen the film - just losts of clips)
