Singin’ in the Rain at Westport Country Playhouse

Step back into Hollywood’s golden age as the Westport Country Playhouse presents the timeless musical classic Singin’ in the Rain on the big screen. This beloved 1952 film transports audiences to 1920s Hollywood, when the movie industry was making its pivotal shift from silent films to talkies.

The story follows Don Lockwood, played by Gene Kelly, a popular silent film star whose career takes an unexpected turn when his on-screen partner, Lina Lamont, struggles to adapt her voice for sound films. With the help of his quick-witted friend Cosmo, portrayed by Donald O’Connor, and talented newcomer Kathy Selden, played by Debbie Reynolds, Don must find a way to save the studio’s first talkie—and his career—through clever dubbing and heartfelt performances.

Overflowing with iconic musical numbers, unforgettable dance routines, and the romance that has charmed audiences for generations, Singin’ in the Rain remains one of Hollywood’s most celebrated musicals.
