Behind every period piece is a true story, and Grease: Rise Of The Pink Ladies is no exception. A prequel to the 1978 movie musical Grease, Paramount+’s Rise Of The Pink Ladies tells the origin story of one of Grease’s main greaser groups, the Pink Ladies. As a group of unlikely friends, the Pink Ladies band together in the Grease prequel to promote inclusivity among the student body of Rydell High (while having some fun and getting into trouble in the process).
