Theatre Rhinoceros presents LA CAGE AUX FOLLES, book by Harvey Fierstein, music and lyrics by Jerry Herman, based on the play by Jean Poiret. Co-directed by Crystal Liu & John Fisher, music direction by Armando Fox, choreography by Aaron Simunovich. Produced by Chris Mancini & Brian Sauls.
LA CAGE AUX FOLLES remains one of musical theatre’s all-time biggest hits, adding new dimension to the boulevard comedy. After 20 years of partnered 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.
LA CAGE AUX FOLLES is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals. www.concordtheatricals.com
