Singin’ In The Rain

Singin’ In The Rain

One of our favourite old time classic musical films! The film came out in 1952, starring Gene Kelly, Donald O’Connor and Debbie Reynolds and has also been adapted to stage musicals.

The storyline

In 1927, Don Lockwood and Lina Lamont are a famous on-screen romantic pair. Lina, however, mistakes the on-screen romance for real love. Don has worked hard to get where he is today, with his former partner Cosmo. When Don and Lina’s latest film is transformed into a musical, Don has the perfect voice for the songs. But Lina – well, even with the best efforts of a diction coach, they still decide to dub over her voice. Kathy Selden is brought in, an aspiring actress, and while she’s working on the movie, Don falls in love with her. Will Kathy continue to “aspire”, or will she get the break she deserves?
