Showcase Cinemas will be screening iconic romantic comedy classic Singin’ in the Rain

Buzz, Film

The much-loved musical Singin’ in the Rain is returning to the big screen at Showcase Cinema and Showcase Cinema de Lux venues across the country to mark its 70th anniversary this Mother’s Day.

Set in 1920s Hollywood, popular actor Don Lockwood (Gene Kelly) is famous for his silent films. However, when the studio turns his new film into a musical, Don enlists chorus girl Kathy Selden (Debbie Reynolds) to dub over leading lady Lina Lamont (Jean Hagen). As Don falls for Kathy, Lina starts to suspect the truth.

Mark Barlow, UK General Manager for Showcase Cinemas, said: “Nothing warms our hearts more than a romantic musical, and this feel-good classic is still as popular today as it was 70 years ago.

“Timeless movies like Singin’ in the Rain were meant to be enjoyed on the big screen, so if you’re treating your mum to a well-earned rest this Mother’s Day, or want to catch one of the greatest musicals of all time in the cinema while you can, join us for these limited screenings.”

Singin’ in the Rain will be shown at select Showcase Cinema and Showcase Cinema de Lux locations on Sunday 27th and Thursday 31st March.

The screening forms part of Showcase Cinema’s Flashback series, with classic and cult films being shown throughout 2022, including Grease, Jaws, Bridget Jones Diary, and many more.
