Singin’ In The Rain at Artscape Opera House

Making a splash from the moment it premiered, this sensational production of SINGIN` IN THE RAIN sold out on the West End, received unparalleled praise from critics and audiences alike; garnered four Olivier Award nominations and undertook a major UK tour.

Now a South African cast is set to delight audiences in Wellington, Auckland, Singapore, Manila and Hong Kong before returning for seasons in Cape Town and Johannesburg.

Adapted from the movie of the same name, this highly acclaimed, brand-new production is set in Hollywood in the waning days of the silent screen era. It focuses on romantic lead Don Lockwood, his sidekick Cosmo Brown, aspiring actress Kathy Selden, and Lockwood`s leading lady Lina Lamont, whose less-than-dulcet vocal tones make her an unlikely candidate for stardom in talking pictures.

The iconic, jaw-dropping choreography of the movie is flawlessly recreated. The sets and costumes are gorgeous. The performers are `triple threats`. Those catchy songs that we know are all there -``You Stepped Out Of A Dream``, Make `Em Laugh`, `Moses Supposes`, `You Are My Lucky Star`, `Good Morning Good Morning` and of course, the signature `Singin` In The Rain`. It`s packed full of the charm, romance, comedy and Tinsel Town glamour of one of the world`s best-loved movies. And it rains on stage...as well as in the first three rows! That`s one knock-`em-dead musical right there!
