Description |
Jerry Herman’s (Hello, Dolly!, Mame, Mack and Mabel) unforgettable score includes the touching You On My Arm, The Best of Times and the proud and defiant anthem I am What I Am. Writer Harvey Fierstein’s credits include Torch Song Trilogy, Newsies and the current Broadway smash hit Kinky Boots.
La Cage Aux Folles stars Todd McKenney as Albin who is the brilliant drag performer, Zaza, and Simon Burke as his partner Georges. Simon starred in this role on London’s West End. Georges and Albin have happily lived together for twenty years above their St Tropez nightclub La Cage Aux Folles. It’s the imminent engagement of George’s son to the daughter of a bigoted, right-wing politician that creates the comedy and the heart-warming drama of this award winning musical |
