La Cage Aux Folles

Why see La Cage Aux Folles?

The Best Of Times are now

Outrageously funny, dynamic and joyful, "La Cage" remains one of the most socially relevant musicals since premiering on Broadway in 1983 and its constant revivals ensure that new generations of fans fall in love with it time and time again. Georges and Albin, a happily unmarried gay couple in St Tropez find their lives turned upside down when Georges' son shows up with a fiancee in turn - complete with her uber-conservative family. Don't miss this local production of the classique!

What is the story?

One day Georges' son Jean-Michel appears, to tell his parents that he is getting married. The only problem is that this fiancee's parents are uber-conservative politicians - strictly opposed to drag clubs and homosexuality. Terrified at the prospect of Anne's parents discovering his unusual background, Jean-Michel tries to strongarm the flamboyant Albin (who has acted as mother all these years) into appearing as an uncle instead.

The charade continues with an upset Albin and concerned Georges until an unfortunate sing-along in a restaurant with Anne's family leads them to discover the truth about Jean Michel's family. Can Albin forgive Jean-Michel for being ashamed of him, and will he be able to hold on to Anne? Welcome to La Cage - where nothing is as it seems.

Lionel Stole The Show!

Although I appreciated Mariah Carey's vocals, Lionel stole the show! He made the night spectacular and made it very personable and fun! Probably the best concert I have been to for a long time! Couldn't help but listen to him more on my morning commute today! Still basking in the moment! Highly recommend the show, but I believe Seattle was the last show! Thanks Lionel for making me a life long fan! ... Read more

For Lionel Richie

Richie was fabulous. Mariah Carey, terrible. She moved like a Zombie and looked BORED. And her band drowned her out. Maybe that was a good thing. Thank the Lord Lionel Richie saved the night. ... Read more
