West End performers will be starring in the all-singing, all-dancing show at the Amazing-Maize-Maze at Compton Hall, South Creake, near Fakenham, on Saturday August 19.

The well-loved songs from the show including Greased Lightning, You're The One That I Want and Grease Is The Word are set to ensure an electric atmosphere.

As part of the evening there will be a classic car and bike exhibition

Anna Gardner, of the Amazing-Maize-Maze, said: "We're having a West End show in the beautiful Norfolk countryside and it is going to be amazing.

"It will have great appeal for everyone from eight to 80 and there is sure to be an electrifying atmosphere."
