A SPECIAL outdoor cinema screening of Grease will be taking place in Warrington with all profits going to St Rocco’s Hospice.

Walton Hall and Gardens will be celebrating and honouring the passing of Olivia-Newton John by hosting the showing next month.

The 1970s hit will be shown on Friday, September 30, following two successful screenings of Rocketman and Pulp Fiction earlier this year.

Guests can dress up in their favourite Pink Ladies look or T-Birds inspired leathers if they wish too while they sit back and sing-along under the stars.

You can also treat yourself and go VIP for the evening, where deck chairs will be provided in a prime location.

There is also the option to go standard – simply just bring something to sit on, claim your own spot on the lawn and settle in.

Children’s tickets are also available too.

All profit from ticket sales will go to St Rocco’s – a charity providing free care for people with life-limiting illnesses.

The money will go towards a range of uses at St Rocco’s, including nursing costs, providing food for patients, providing counselling to help bereaved families through difficult times, or providing a course of relaxing and calming therapy.

Cllr Tony Higgins, cabinet member for leisure and community, said: “This is a fantastic opportunity to enjoy a night of cinema under the stars within the beautiful grounds of Walton Hall and Gardens, all whilst helping a local Warrington charity.

“This outdoor cinema showing of Grease is the perfect way for us to pay tribute to Olivia Newton-John, who was such an icon but also a huge supporter of cancer awareness and research charities.

"For this reason, it is fitting that all profits from ticket sales, in tribute to the Grease star goes to St Rocco’s, who provide so much support for patients and local people on a daily basis.

“I can’t wait to see more families coming to Walton again for a fantastic evening watching one of the 70’s classics and knowing that all profits are going to such a fantastic and worthwhile cause.”
