Good girl Sandy Olsson and greaser Danny Zuko fell in love over the summer. They unexpectedly discover they're now in the same high school.A musical about teens in love in the 1950s. It's California 1958 and greaser Danny Zuko (John Travolta) and Australian Sandy Olsson (Olivia Newton-John) are in love. They spend time at the beach, and when they go back to school, what neither of them knows is that they both now attend Rydell High. Danny's the leader of the T-Birds, a group of black leather jacket-wearing greasers while Sandy hangs with the Pink Ladies, a group of pink-wearing girls led by Rizzo (Stockard Channing). When they clash at Rydell's first pep rally, Danny isn't the same Danny from the beach. They try to be like each other so they can be together.

Display
At the Great British Drive In films are played on the huge 100 sqm screen. For live entertainment such as music or comedy we film the acts on the stage and display them on the screen.
Sound
Audio is sent out over FM transmitters to your radio. All you’ve got to tune your car radio to 87.7FM. At times we play the sound at a low level from our stage, this shouldn’t be a substitute for a radio. If you want the best experience please either tune your car radio or bring a personal radio.
In very rare circumstances there can be a delay between audio and video due to the specific manufacturer of the vehicle. In this situation, please speak to a member of the team.
Parking
Our site allows everyone a clear view of the screen and we make sure everyone has plenty of space around them. In busier shows we may ask larger cars to park slightly further back to allow everyone a great view. If you would like to sit in your boot, that is ok, but given the height of boots you will be placed towards the back of site on busier shows. Please always, always, tell a member of staff if you aren’t happy with your view.
Sitting outside your car
Please feel free to set up seats outside your car, just always tell the staff member who’s parking you so they can leave enough room out the front (you must sit outside the front of the car).
Please also make sure you have a portable radio. It is important to note, this is a drive in cinema experience and sound is played by the individual speaker system of each guest’s car/portable radio, therefore if you sit outside your car you may experience some sound delay around the arena.
