Photo Flash: Meet the Stars of LA CAGE AUX FOLLES at Bay Area Musicals

Bay Area Musicals!, the newest non-profit theatrical organization to join the vibrant San Francisco Bay Area arts community, closes out its inaugural season with the multiple Tony Award-winning musical comedy, LA CAGE AUX FOLLES. BroadwayWorld has a sneak peek at the stars in character below!

This thrilling and warmhearted farce centers around Georges and his lover Albin, who stars as Zaza at their St. Tropez drag nightclub "LA CAGE AUX FOLLES." Problems arise when Georges' twenty-five year old son, Jean-Michel - a result from a brief encounter years back - announces that he is engaged to Anne Dindon, the daughter of a well-known homophobic politician, Edouard Dindon. Anne's parents want to come and meet Jean-Michel's mother and father. Little do they know that Albin, a man, has essentially been Jean-Michel's mother figure his whole life. This scenario propels audiences into side-splitting laughter, as well as teary-eyed moments of tenderness. La Cage Aux Folles is widely regarded as Jerry Herman's best score and features such classic songs as "The Best of Times is Now," "Song In the Sand," "La Cage Aux Folles," and "I Am What I Am."

Led by Michael RJ Campbell* as Albin and Clay David as Georges, LA CAGE AUX FOLLES features an ensemble cast of Bay Area actors including, Jack O'Reilly, Joseph Alvarado, Angela Pardini, CameRon Weston, Mary Gibboney, Patrick Brewer, Michael Saenz, Christopher Juan, Malakani Severson, Lavale Davis, RJ San Jose, Billy Raphael and Sarah Sloan.

Directed by Matthew McCoy, the creative team for LA CAGE AUX FOLLES includes music director Jon Gallo, scenic designer Kuo-Hao Lo, lighting designer Joe D'Emilio+, stage manager Sarah Lodick and Sound Designer Julie Indelicato.
