The Hit Musical, Singin' In The Rain, is an all-singing, all-dancing extravaganza!. Based on one of the most celebrated and beloved movies of all time, Singin' In The Rain jubilantly taps its way onto WBT's stage this Spring. Reveling in parody, the musical turns the precarious birth of the 'talkies' (and the demise of nearly all silent picture stars during the late 20s) into an unforgettably hilarious, light-hearted romantic comedy. Singin' In The Rain has been described as 'one of the best musicals of all time' featuring 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.'
