'Singin' in the Rain'

From the event description:

A silent film production company and cast make a difficult transition to sound. When the transition is being made from silent films to `talkies,' everyone has trouble adapting. Don and Lina have been cast repeatedly as a romantic couple, but when their latest film is remade into a musical, only Don has the voice for the new singing part. After a lot of practise with a diction coach, Lina still sounds terrible, and Kathy, a bright young aspiring actress, is hired to record over her voice.

When: Friday, Jan. 17, 7:30-9:30 p.m.
Where: Crest Theatre, 1013 K St.
Admission: $10 (General Admission)
