On meeting the producers of GREASE, Sonia was once again signed on the spot for the lead role of ‘Sandy’. For twelve months, until April 1995, she performed to a full house and critical acclaim alongside Craig McLachlan and Shane Richie.

This production of Grease incorporated all the hit songs from the movie and opened at the Dominion Theatre in 1993 starring Craig Maclachlan as Danny Zuko. Having been discovered in Neighbours the producers realised that he exuded the charm that was essential for the character, Danny Zuko. The producers had already seen 800 girls for the part of Sandy and when introduced to American actress Debbie Gibson they offered her the part immediately. Then in early 1994 Debbie Gibson decided to leave the production.
