Review: LA CAGE AUX FOLLES at Palm Canyon Theatre

What did our critic think of LA CAGE AUX FOLLES at Palm Canyon Theatre? Based on the 1973 French play of the same name by Jean Poiret, the musical gets the star treatment from composer/lyricist Jerry Herman and book by Harvey Fierstein and has become a gay cult classic since it’s Broadway debut in 1983.

Review: LA CAGE AUX FOLLES at Music Theater Heritage

Looking for a little relief from the ongoing political season? If so, I should like to recommend the outrageous, belly-laugh of a show now playing in the Music Theatre Heritage Grand Theater on the fourth floor of Crown Center described by another audience member as “awesome.” It is the self-deprecating, six-time Tony Winning, best musical of 1984, “La Cage aux Folles.”

Feature: QETC'S LA CAGE AUX FOLLES To Star Barrie Stevens - Auditions Open!

stablished in 2002, QETC’s recent production of the musical Cabaret received glowing reviews. To be staged at QETC’s regular venue, the fabulous, state-of-the-art CC Amstel theatre, internationally renowned creative, Carolien Canters will direct and choreograph. Casting is in full swing, and the company is particularly looking for strong male-identifying actor/singers to play the lead drag Queen, Albin AKA Zaza! Artistic Director, Mark Winstanley told us, “La Cage is the perfect choice for QETC. It’s not been seen professionally here since 2010 and we are over the moon that Barrie is onboard. Drag is very big right now. We encourage drag queens and musical theatre actors to audition. But all talented performers who wants to co-star with this theatre legend should apply!’
