The West End is coming to Wellington and Auckland in the form of musical comedy Singin’ In The Rain. Based on the 1952 Oscar winning film of the same name starring Gene Kelly, the musical first debuted in London in 1983. The latest production is starting its world tour in Wellington from April 15. And of course it wouldn’t be Singin’ in the Rain without the rain. Production manager Rich Blacksell is the rain man. He oversees 12,000 liters of water making its way through 800 metres of pipe to pour down on stage.
