When: March 9-April 2, 2023 Ticket Prices: Start at $33 More Information: The “Greatest Movie Musical of All Time” is faithfully and lovingly adapted by Broadway legends, Betty Comden and Adolph Green, from their original award-winning screenplay in Singin’ in the Rain. The story follows silent film stars, Don Lockwood and Lina Lamont, who on screen are a hot item but, behind the scenes, things aren’t always as they appear! When “talking pictures” become essential to any film star’s career, Lina’s squeaky voice might be the end of her stardom without the help of a talented young actress to do the talking and singing for her. Each unforgettable scene, song and dance from the film is accounted for, including the show-stopping title number, complete with an onstage rainstorm! Hilarious situations, snappy dialogue and a hit-parade score of Hollywood standards make Singin’ in the Rain the perfect entertainment for any fan of the golden age of movie musicals.
