Based on the classic 1952 MGM musical comedy, Singin' in the Rain is set in the 1920s, during the transition from silent film to talkies, a period of major upheaval in the film industry. Don Lockwood, the reigning king of silent film, and his bubble-brained diva scene partner Lina Lamont are Hollywood's golden couple, or at least that's what the press believes. When the studio decides that their next big film should be a talkie, the duo finds their world flipped upside down.

Packed with romance and wit, high-energy choreography and dazzling set design, Singin' in the Rain has been seen by millions of people around the world since its Chichester and West End premieres. It is directed by Jonathan Church with Choreography by Andrew Wright, Additional Choreography by Jayne Elster, Set and Costume Design by Simon Higlett, Lighting Design by Tim Mitchell, Sound Design by Gareth Owen, Video Design by Ian Galloway, Musical Supervision by Robert Scott and Orchestration by Larry Blank.

Next year, it will embark on a UK and Ireland tour, opening at the Churchill Theatre, Bromley from 28 January to 6 February 2027, followed by a summer season at Sadler’s Wells from 2 June to 3 July 2027. Casting will be announced soon.
