Hi Huneybees,
And if you have enjoyed the previous musical - The Sound of Music, be sure to catch Singin' in the Rain as Bethany Dickson (who played Maria previously) returns to Singapore in the leading female role as Kathy Selden, which was played by Debbie Reynolds onscreen.
The movie’s iconic choreography is flawlessly recreated, and with the help of 12,000 litres of water (treated & recycled), the audience can enjoy one of the most famous dance routines live on stage, with some leaving the theatre a little wetter than when they arrived!
Leading the cast of 27 as the charming Don Lockwood is Grant Almirall, a seasoned star of musicals who recently triumphed in the role of Frankie Valli in Jersey Boys. Musical star Bethany Dickson, who has recently wowed audiences across China, New Zealand and Singapore with her performance as Maria in The Sound of Music, returns to the stage as the aspiring actress Kathy Selden.
Yipee! I'd definitely gona have a splashing good time when Gene Kelly's classic musical film Singin' in the Rain is brought to life, in a musical at Marina Bay Sands, Singapore, on 9th July! I'm not one to carry an umbrella when it's raining and YES! I DO LOVE SINGING IN THE RAIN! *Crazy*I'm singin' in the rainJust singin' in the rainWhat a glorious feelin'I'm happy again.

Here's more about the musical that is coming to Singapore in July with real water action!!!
Set to make a splash in Singapore, Singin' in the Rain opens on 9 July at the MasterCard Theatres, Marina Bay Sands for a limited season. It was a sell-out West End season in 2012, with unparalleled praises from critics and audiences alike, gained 4 Olivier Award nominations, and a major UK tour, Singin' in the Rain is sure to delight Singapore audiences with tickets on sale now!
The story is set in 1927, made famous by Gene Kelly and Debbie Reynolds in the iconic 1952 MGM movie, being the first Hollywood musical, when the silver screen found its voice and left silent movies – and some of its stars – behind.
This spectacular production is packed full of the charm, romance, comedy and Tinseltown glamour of one of the world’s best-loved movies and features all the songs from the glorious MGM score including Good Morning, Make ‘em Laugh, Moses Supposes and the classic Singin’ in the Rain.
The movie’s iconic choreography is flawlessly recreated, and with the help of 12,000 litres of water (treated & recycled), the audience can enjoy one of the most famous dance routines live on stage, with some leaving the theatre a little wetter than when they arrived!
"This production of Singin' in the Rain was one of the hottest tickets in the West End during its run, and I’m sure it will generate the same buzz in Singapore. I am absolutely delighted to have the opportunity to bring one of my favourite musicals to Singapore audiences – this show is a winner because it sends people out of the theatre in the happiest of moods!
The movie Singin' in the Rain is arguably the greatest Hollywood musical ever made because of the incredible range and complexity of its song and dance numbers. To see these performed live on a theatre stage is a breath-taking experience. The rain scene is just about everyone’s favourite screen musical moment – and on a theatre stage it is awesome and has to be seen to be believed!” --- James Cundall, Presenter and CEO of Lunchbox Theatrical Productions
Leading the cast of 27 as the charming Don Lockwood is Grant Almirall, a seasoned star of musicals who recently triumphed in the role of Frankie Valli in Jersey Boys. Musical star Bethany Dickson, who has recently wowed audiences across China, New Zealand and Singapore with her performance as Maria in The Sound of Music, returns to the stage as the aspiring actress Kathy Selden.
Don Lockwood is a silent movie star with everything he could want - fame, adulation and a well-publicised ‘romance’ with his co-star Lina Lamont. But Hollywood is about to change forever. There is rumour in the studio of a new kind of film, where the actors actually talk…and sing...and dance. Can Don and the uniquely voiced Lina make the transition and will chorus girl Kathy Selden fulfill her dream of stardom and capture Don’s heart along the way?
With high-energy choreography, sumptuous set design and costumes, a superb score and a joyous story, Singin' in the Rain showers you with everything you could wish for in a hit musical.
Great news for all MasterCard cardholders! Advance tickets with a 15% discount will be available during the MasterCard Priceless Experience presale for all MasterCard credit cardholders from 11 to 18 March or until tickets are sold out.
Additionally, for a limited number of MasterCard holders, when purchasing a dinner for two at DB Bistro at Marina Bay Sands, will receive two complimentary tickets to see the show courtesy of MasterCard.
