Synopsis

2010 Tony Winner for Best Revival of a Musical

La Cage aux Folles is a funny and touching tale of one family's struggle to stay together... stay fabulous... and above all else, stay true to themselves. Georges is the owner of a glitzy nightclub in lovely Saint-Tropez with his partner Albin, who moonlights as the glamorous chanteuse Zaza. When Georges' son brings his fiancée's conservative parents home to meet the flashy pair, the bonds of family are put to the test as the feather boas fly!
