One of the best-loved musicals of all time, Singin’ in the Rain plays at Malvern Theatres from Monday, August 17 for one week only.
It stars the Oliver Award winning West End and Broadway actor Tim Flavin as Don Lockwood, the famous part immortalised by Gene Kelly in the iconic film version of Singin’.
Singin’ in the Rain exudes all the style and spectacle of the MGM golden age and features some of the best loved comedy routines, dance numbers, and songs ever written, including Good Morning, Make ‘em Laugh, Moses Supposes, You Were Meant For Me and of course Singin’ in the Rain. It’s a show guaranteed to lift your spirits and send you out singing and dancing, whatever the weather.
To make it ‘rain’ in the theatre, 60m of water pipe runs above the stage with 1000 droplet valves producing 600,00 drops of water over five minutes. Needless to say this means Wellington boots for everyone with the cast alone using 37 pairs, not to mention 30 umbrellas.
Tim Flavin won his Olivier for his role in the West End production of On Your Toes and also received best actor nominations for his parts in My One and Only and Crazy For You. His other musical credits include Kiss Me Kate, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, White Christmas, Chicago and 42nd Street.
Singin’ In The Rain has been produced by the same team that created hits such as 42nd Street, Disney’s Beauty and the Beast, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, South Pacific and many more.
Singin’ in the Rain runs from Monday till Saturday, August 17-22 and tickets cost £19.50-£29.50 (under 26s £8) available on 01684 892277 or at malvern-theatres.co.uk
