La Cage Aux Folles is ending a year long direct from Broadway tour in Toronto, where it plays The Royal Alexandra Theatre for the next six weeks. Starring George Hamilton and Christopher Sieber, the show tells the story of a manager of a Saint-Tropez nightclub and his cross-dressing lover/lead entertainer. The two stars sat down to talk to BWW about life on the road, switching roles, the message behind the show and how 'gay walks'.
When I first moved to NY, I had two amazing roommates, Eric Christian (dancer, singer and actor extrordinaire) and Jennifer Stetor (now Stetor Eggars... see previous description!). Jen Stet (as we called her) was in 'The Will Rogers Follies', and Eric and I were sweating to the oldies in the Radio City Music Hall's Easter Show. One day, Jen posed the question to me, 'Why do audiences applaud? I mean think about it, human beings slapping their frontal appendages together to give praise...it's just weird.' She may not know it, but I have been fascinated by her query since that day.
Legendary actor George Hamilton, a major film star since the late 50s, is currently treading the boards in the national tour of La Cage Aux Folles, opening July 11 at the Pantages Theatre. Known for such film hits as Love at First Bite, Zorro the Gay Blade, All the Fine Young Cannibals, Light in the Piazza, Where the Boys Are, Your Cheatin' Heart, and Crime and Punishment USA, Hamilton has been referred to as more 'famous for his debonair style and his perfect and perpetual suntan'. He admits to it himself and in our chat, with his self-deprecating sense of humor, jokes and tells very amusing anecdotes.
