The weather stays dry in the studio as Singin’ in the Rain cast drop in
On this week's Saturday Drop In we were joined by member of Inverness Musical Theatre Company
Aimee, Kevin and Trevor have 60 years of involvement in the 100 year old company (we won’t say who is bringing the most of those 60 to the total) and all 3 brought an amazing energy into the Highland Hospital Radio studios to tell us about their forthcoming production of “Singin’ in the Rain
Kevin who is part of the ensemble and also playing the role of Sid Philips spoke about getting to put his tap dancing skills into practice on the stage, having fallen in love with musical theatre following rave reviews appearing on stage as a frog aged 4.
Aimee is also part of the ensemble and will take part in a group tap dance routine. Aimee spoke about how good it felt as the group got into the routine and the buzz they all get when they’re all getting in sync with each other. Keep an eye out for Aimee’s cameo role during the show.
The company celebrates is centenary this year and Trevor spoke about some previous performances over the years and his roles off stage as chair of the company on two occasions. Trevor and the group spoke of how important the roles carried out back stage by members are so important to getting the high quality shows to go ahead.
Singin’ in the Rain runs at the Empire Theatre at Eden Court from Wednesday 26th March to Saturday 29thMarch with a performance every evening at 1930 with an additional 1430 matinee on Saturday. You can get tickets online at the Eden Court Website.
