From February 14 to 27, 2025, the original West End production of the musical "Singin' in the Rain" will make its debut in China,  performing at the stage of the Opera House at the Beijing Performing Arts Center. 

"Singin' in the Rain" has been voted by audiences as the most popular movie-based musical since its global premiere. It flawlessly recreates the movie's iconic singing sequences and daringly innovates the visual presentation by retaining neon lights, vibrant colors, and vintage, stunning costumes. These are combined with lighting and mechanical special effects on contemporary stages to create amazing scenes.

Beijing Performing Arts Centre has meticulously planned an array of pairing activities and services, including art lectures, catering services, creative cultural merchandise, shuttle bus services, etc.
