                         A wet Irishman in Samsun

The Turkish State Opera and Ballet General Directorate (DOB)
has staged the Hollywood classic musical "Singin' in the Rain" 
in Turkey for the first time.  The 3-hour play, adapted from the 
movie, included Gene Kelly's famous dance scene, in which he
revolved around a lamp post amid falling rain.  

Bilal Doğan played Kelly's role in the production staged in 
Samsun, where the technical team built a second stage atop 
the main one, complete with drainage for the rain scene.  

The choreography for the play, which was directed and translated
into Turkish by Aclan Büyüktürkoğlu, was created by Yunus 
Emre Örgüt, with Kıvanç Tepe handling adaptation of the musical
scores.  Costumes were designed by Gülnur Çağlayan Tuluk., 
lighting arranged by Oğuz Murat Yılmaz and video design by
Murat Turgut.  In addition to Bilal Doğan, the lead actors 
included Leyla Ceren Koç, Umut Yavuz and Ulaş Kocatürk.

Where's Delilah?!
