Video: Go Back to 1967 with The Outsiders on Good Morning America

Grease certainly has a hold! Broadway's reigning Best Musical winner The Outsiders visited Good Morning America in the early morning of August 6 to perform a medley of their opening number, "Tulsa '67," and "Grease Got A Hold." Check out video of the performance below.

Currently running at the Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre where the musical opened April 11, The Outsiders is adapted from S.E. Hinton's novel and Francis Ford Coppola's film adaptation. Set in 1967 Tulsa, Oklahoma, the musical follows Ponyboy Curtis, Johnny Cade, and their chosen family of "outsiders," who are in a fight for survival and a quest for purpose in a world that may never accept them. The musical features a book by Adam Rapp with Justin Levine and music and lyrics by Jamestown Revival (Jonathan Clay and Zach Chance) and Levine.
