  • S3E16 - Review - La Cage Aux Folles - Front Row Centre Players
    Jan 12 2025
    January 11, 2025

    Running January 10th through the 25th at the Pumphouse Theatre in Calgary, Kyle reviews FRC's production of La Cage Aux Folles and considers it a faultless production we need more of.

    Tickets: https://www.artscommons.ca/whats-on/la-cage-aux-folles

    About the Show: This crowd-pleasing, rollicking and heartwarming musical about family, commitment, show biz and drag remains one of musical theatre's all-time biggest hits! 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.
