Equity chorus dancers for LA CAGE AUX FOLLES.
SYNOPSIS: After 20 years of un-wedded bliss, Georges and Albin, two men partnered for better-or-worse, get a bit of both when Georges’ son (fathered during a one-night fling) announces his impending marriage to the daughter of a bigoted, right-wing politician. Further complicating the situation is the ‘family business’: Albin and Georges run a drag nightclub in St. Tropez, where Albin is the “star” performer Zaza. Georges reluctantly agrees to masquerade as “normal” when he meets the family of the bride-to-be. But Albin has other plans, with hilarious results.
There are no female-identified chorus roles, however the team is very open to seeing trans, nonbinary, and gender nonconforming dancers.
THE CAGELLES - Angelique, Chantal, Hanna, Mercedes, Phaedra, Bitelle, Clo-Clo, Giselle/AS CAST - Drag performers in the La Cage stage act. Strong voices, comedians, strong dancing skills. Unique and specialty tricks are very welcome.
Please come warmed up and ready to dance. Please bring heels and knee pads if available to you; if you don’t have heels, flats are suitable.
