This spring, a brand new production of Singin' in the Rain will take the Châtelet by storm...
"By itself, the sequence where Gene Kelly dances in the rain embodies the golden age of the Hollywood musical. The song, and its immediate recognisable melody, has been revived and quoted numerable times. From Clockwork Orange to The Simpsons, from Glee to North by Northwest, Nacio Herbert Brown and Arthur Freed‘s composition has been all around the world since its creation in 1929," states the Châtelet's website. "In 1952 Freed, turned one of the big Hollywood producers, put songs end to end to write the film (somehow as An American in Paris a year earlier). This light satire of the cinema world having to deal with the talking picture is a 'resolutely optimistic story from the beginning to the end where professionalism, tenacity, friendship and love overcome all difficulties'".
