SYNOPSIS
In celebration of Toy Factory Productions Ltd’s 20th Anniversary in 2010, we are proud to bring you the deeply missed Sold-Out triumphal musical DECEMBER RAINS.

1950s Singapore: the innocent relationship of a pair of young lovers is sabotaged by strikes organized by Chinese high school students, a marriage of convenience, strong parental disapproval; and a third party waiting desperately in vain for his unrequited love.

1980s Singapore: past grievances and mistakes continue to haunt the younger generation. Only a personal sacrifice and the revelation of an undelivered love letter holds the promise of resolution.

However, no one knows when the rain will cease in December.

In 1996, DECEMBER RAINS was the first Mandarin Musical written in Singapore ever. This labour of love was created by pivotal figure of Singapore Mandarin Pop - Liang Wern Fook, Singer and Composer Jimmy Ye, theatre director Alec Tok and celebrated producer James Toh.

Come August 2010, a brand new staging of this beloved musical will storm the Esplanade Theatre. Helmed by multiple award-winning Director Goh Boon Teck, the 2010 revival of December Rains will be a visual, emotional and musical wonder. Singapore’s international singing sensation Kit Chan will lead the 20-member cast along with Broadway Star George Chan and Singapore-Hong Kong theatre luminary Jeffrey Low. With Elaine Chan as Musical Director, this musical will wet your eyes and melt your heart.

OTHER EVENT DETAILS
为庆祝TOY 肥料厂成立二十周年，我们为您呈献万众切盼、一票难求的经典华语音乐剧：《雨季》。

《雨季》是个爱情故事，充满着无穷的欢乐和持久的痛苦的爱情故事。

五十年代，政治风云频频变化的新加坡；一对青春纯真的恋人，被时代的交替、社会的动乱、父母的反对和政治的婚姻，无情拆散。在两个情侣身上，痛苦并没有终止，爱的荆棘也扎在不能自拔的第三者----- 一个多情传信人的心上。

八十年代，光鲜富裕的岛国上，时间和感情的雨，依然没有洗去过去的委屈和无奈的错误，继续淋湿着无辜的下一代。一切纠缠，只待那守护者的无私牺牲，以及一封仍未转交的情书的出现。然而，又有谁能知道，雨季什么时候才会真正结束……

1996年，本地第一部华语音乐剧《雨季》是由本地华语流行音乐教父梁文福、创作歌手叶良俊、资深舞台导演卓金炎和著名监制杜万龄联合创作。2010年，《雨季》将披上难以抗拒的新装，导演是获得多项戏剧奖的吴文德。本土国际歌坛巨星陈洁仪、享誉百老汇的田伟鸿和新加坡驻香港的优秀舞台剧演员刘俊葳，将一起创造余韵悠长的《雨季》。《雨季》是一部难得的完美梦幻组合的成品，供您一再举家同赏。
