Filled with Gershwin's lush and romantic tunes and the toe-tapping talents of the one and only Gene Kelly, be swept back in time to stylish 1950s Paris where ex American GI Jerry is trying to make it as a painter in the City of Light - in glorious technicolor!
Inspired by George's orchestral piece of the same name, An American In Paris chronicles the whirlwind romance between Jerry and Lise Bouvier, a cultured resident of the city, who, unbeknownst to the aspiring artist, also happens to be the girlfriend of a new acquaintance... Beloved songs like 'I Got Rhythm', 'Embraceable You' and 'S'Wonderful' punctuate an unforgettable musical epic that will forever be one of old-school Hollywood's most glamorous and remarkable musicals.
