Based on the 1952 movie of the same name, Singin’ In The Rain JR. takes place in Hollywood during the last days of the silent movie era. The story follows Don Lockwood, one half of the blockbuster celebrity silent movie star “couple” Lockwood and Lamont, and the extreme measures taken when his co-star’s high-pitched and nasal voice threatens the duo’s successful transition into talking pictures.
The Academy Players cast features 30+ young actors from Rhode Island and nearby Massachusetts. The performance is held at the Q2Q Blackbox Theatre in Providence.
