LA CAGE AUX FOLLES

This beloved gender-bending musical comedy and winner of six Tony Awards, including Best Musical, features an iconic score by Jerry Herman (Hello, Dolly!, Mame) and is based on the hilarious book by Harvey Fierstein (Newsies, Kinky Boots). The twenty year relationship between Georges, a club-owner, and Albin, the head drag performer, faces a test when their son announces his engagement to the daughter of ultra-conservative political parents. To please their son, Georges and Albin agree to hide their lifestyle and play it straight for a dinner with the potential in-laws. However, Albin’s different definition of “normal” threatens to upend the entire supper with hilarious results. La Cage aux Folles is a fabulously fun musical about family, identity and loving who you are. It kicked off Peoria Players’ 75th season back in 1993 to standing ovations and is back for more good-natured glitz and glamour!
