    RICHARD GERE as Danny Zuko in London Production of "GREASE" - June 1973
    While visiting
    The Late Show with Stephen Colbert
    , the late-night host whipped out a clip of a 22-year-old Richard Gere onstage singing “Summer Lovin‘” in 1973’s
    Grease
    on the West End. “Why are you taking me back this far?” grimaced Gere.“It was one of the first things I did in New York,” Gere said of Broadway’s original
    Grease
    . “I started out as an understudy and I was covering five guys and every night; one of the guys didn't show up or there was a problem, and I was doing all the parts. When it came time to do it in London, they asked if I would come in and lead and play Danny. It was the first time I had been out of the country.”
    Grease
    was Gere’s second turn on Broadway, having made his debut in the musical
    Soon
    . Gere took
    Grease
    across the pond, starting in Chichester before transferring to London’s West End.
    This is the London version of a PLAYBILL and is in VERY GOOD condition
