Secret Cinema is returning to London with a new production of GREASE: The Immersive Movie Musical. Presented with TodayTix, the immersive experience will run from 1 August to 7 September at Evolution London in Battersea Park.

The two-and-a-half-hour production based on the 1978 film starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John will feature a cast of 30 performing amidst giant multi-screen platforms, turning the venue into a cinematic theatrical experience.

Merritt Baer, Secret Cinema Producer and TodayTix Group President & Co-Founder, said: “I am thrilled that Secret Cinema is returning home to London for the first time since 2022, and what could be more electrifying than spending those summer nights with GREASE: The Immersive Movie Musical. The move to Evolution London in Battersea Park marks both Secret Cinema’s most central location yet and the start of a three-year partnership that will see our world-class creative team present an iconic production each summer. Prepare to step back into your favourite movies with a dose of cinematic immersive flair that only Secret Cinema can deliver.”

Director, Matt Costain, whose previous productions with Secret Cinema include Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back and Dirty Dancing said: “Secret Cinema returns bigger and better than ever, offering an experience like never before. We’ve always pioneered spectacular immersive worlds that culminated in an epic film screening. Now, in this new production of Grease, you’ll live the film from start to finish, fully absorbed in its heart. With the movie playing all around you and performances at every turn, you’ll really become part of the action.”

Secret Cinema's last immersive experience in London was the Christmas experience Wishmas. They have also staged immersive productions of Stranger Things, Dirty Dancing, Bridgerton, Casino Royale, and many others.

The creative team includes set designer Tom Rogers, choreographer Jennifer Weber, lighting designer Howard Hudson, sound designer Gareth Fry, and video designer Ian William Galloway.

Future productions for 2026 and 2027 will be announced later in the year.
