Singin’ in the Rain at the Lido Theatre in Paris: a major musical in the heart of the Champs-Élysées
A story set during a decisive period in cinema
The story takes place in Hollywood in the 1920s. At that time, cinema was undergoing a major transformation: silent films were gradually giving way to talking productions. For actors, producers and film crews, this technological revolution represented both an opportunity and a genuine challenge.
Don Lockwood, a renowned silent-film artist, finds himself confronted with this new reality. Alongside Kathy Selden and Cosmo Brown, he evolves in a world where audience expectations and production methods are changing rapidly. This transition gives rise to comic, musical and human situations that form the heart of the show.
The story thus allows audiences to rediscover the spirit of great American cinema while exploring the inner workings of an industry undergoing profound change. The show combines humor, music and dance to portray this period with an energy particularly suited to the stage.
A production led by Robert Carsen
The staging of this new production is entrusted to Robert Carsen, who also contributes to the show’s visual design. His work helps give this adaptation its own stage identity while preserving the spirit of the great classic that inspired it.
The set design, lighting, costumes, videos and choreography come together to create a cohesive world. The show features approximately 240 costumes, helping to accompany the various situations and reinforce the Hollywood atmosphere.
The choreography is by Rebecca Howell, with a strong emphasis on dance movements and tap dancing. The latter is one of the iconic elements of Singin’ in the Rain and brings a particularly dynamic dimension to the performances.
An international cast
The production brings together several artists from different international musical stages. Ashley Day notably plays Don Lockwood, while Maddie Waller portrays Kathy Selden. Charlie Waddell plays Cosmo Brown.
The cast also includes Julius D'Silva as R.F. Simpson / Producer and Daniele Coombe in the roles of Dora Bailey and Miss Dinsmore. Several other artists complete the ensemble and take part in the various musical and choreographic scenes.
This international cast brings great richness to the show and allows the characters to come to life through performances suited to the demands of a large-scale musical.
A show driven by music and tap dancing
Music naturally occupies a central place in Singin’ in the Rain. The compositions by Nacio Herb Brown and the musical elements associated with the show help recreate the world of major American productions.
The dance sequences are also an essential element of the performance. Tap dancing, in particular, gives the show its characteristic energy. Synchronized movements, changes in rhythm and the choreographic work offer spectators many visually striking moments.
The musical accompaniment and the presence of an orchestra also contribute to giving the scenes greater scale. The result is a production designed to be experienced as a complete show, combining several artistic disciplines.
