A Little Theatre Adventure -- "Singin' in the Rain"
You'll enjoy an evening performance of SLO Little Theatre's production of "Singin' in the Rain", followed by a talkback - led by longtime SLO Little Theatre actor and volunteer, Elaine Fournier.
The Play: You remember the plot. You love the characters. You know "the song." It's one of the most celebrated and beloved films of all time. 1920's Hollywood is the setting for this zany, lighthearted romantic comedy about the early days of sound film, when many a movie studio found itself scrambling to salvage the career of its chipmunk-voiced silent picture star. The MGM classic has been faithfully and lovingly adapted by Broadway legends Betty Comden and Adolph Green from their original award-winning screenplay. Each unforgettable scene, song and dance, is accounted for, including the showstopping title number, complete with an onstage rainstorm! Hilarious situations, snappy dialogue, and a hit-parade score of 22 Hollywood standards make SINGIN' IN THE RAIN the perfect entertainment for any fan of the golden age of movie musicals.
The talkback: A talkback is a post-show informal conversation with members of the play's backstage team. Led by long-time SLO Little Theatre contributor Elaine Fournier, this is a chance to learn about set design, choreography, musical direction and lighting direction. You may ask any questions about the show or artistic process and gain more of an insight into how the theater works.
Elaine Fournier has a Master's in English with a dramatic literature emphasis. She taught theatre appreciation, acting, dramatic literature and film at Cuesta College, and taught English composition at Cal Poly and Hancock College.
Elaine has also been with SLO Little Theatre since she was 15 years-old and was a dancer in Oklahoma! at the Madonna Inn. She moved through the ranks to become a choreographer, an actor and a director. She has been on the Board of the Little Theatre for the last four years, with several other four-year termsin her past. Currently she serves on the Board's Artistic Advisory Committee that chooses the plays for the season. She is also a Lifetime Member, an honorific for years of service.
