Singing in the Rain - Palace Theatre

Yesterday we brought my sister Kayo to the Palace Theatre in London to see the musical "Singing in the Rain" for her 50th, 40th, 30th, 21st birthday. This was of course made famous by Gene Kelly in the 1952 movie of the same name.

What a show! Fantastic dancing and singing throughout. Highlights were the wonderful ends to both the first act and the show. Real water falling onto the stage made for a wet dancing sequence - the first few rows got splashed. Great performances all around - especially from Adam Cooper as Don Lockwood (the role made famous by Gene Kelly). Kayo loved the evening and it was great for me to see her enjoying the show so much. 

As a flavour for what we saw - check out the following official trailer on YouTube:
