The musical "Grease" don't exactly use an orchestra of any type. An orchestra needs to have some sort of strings in order for it to be called an orchestra I believe (Ex. Violon, Viola, Chello, Bass.)

By being in the production of grease and listening to the Broadway sountrack, the band (or orchestra if you want it called that) can include...

Piano, Keyboard (Maybe 2 keyboards), Electric Bass, Electric Guitar, Alto/Tenor/Baritone Saxophone, Percussion (including drum set, chimes, xylophone and etc.
