Union Station will be showing a free screening of Grease tonight in honour of the late Olivia Newtown-John as part of TD Union Summer.

The late actress is well-known for her starring role as Sandy Olsson, which she played alongside John Travolta's Danny Zuko in the 1978 cult classic Grease.

Newtown-John died on August 8 in her southern California home after a 30-year battle with breast cancer, according to an Instagram post made by her husband, John Easterling.

Union Station announced they would show the film "in memory of Oliva Newton-John" in an Instagram story posted on August 9.

The movie will run from 7 p.m. to 8:50 p.m. on August 10, and fans can enjoy the musical, which follows Sandy and Danny as they reunite at Rydell High after a summer romance.

A Union Station spokesperson told Narcity that “it is certainly timely to show this film as a way to celebrate the accomplished career of a performer like Olivia Newton-John.”

Spots can't be reserved, so you may want to arrive early to secure a good seat on the patio.

TD Union Summer hosts events all summer long with live music, free movies, a licensed pop-up bar and a wide variety of food vendors, including Gus Tacos, Mikey's Smashburgers, NaanSense, and Souvla by Mamakas.
