This intimate play with music is a fictional account of what might have taken place behind the scenes during the making of the classic film Singin’ in the Rain. There’s lightning in a bottle but a storm behind the scenes at the studio where Gene Kelly begins work on the film. He’s determined to keep both his longtime collaborator Stanley Donen and trusted assistant Jeanne Coyne on set... despite the fact that they’ve just divorced, and Coyne appears to carry a torch for Kelly. To top it off, their producer is wrestling with the studio for resources, and newly hired co-star Debbie Reynolds can’t even dance. One of the greatest movie musicals of all time is born in this inventive backstage show featuring the classic music, songs and dance of Golden-era MGM.
