With music by tuneful master Jerry Herman of Hello Dolly fame and book by actor-playwright Harvey Fierstein, the original 1983 Broadway production garnered nine Tony Award nominations and six wins, including Best Musical, Best Score, and Best Book.
In this hysterically funny musical comedy French Riviera nightclub owner Georges and his longtime love Albin feel they must conceal both their lifestyle and their ownership of the drag club downstairs when Georges’ son Jean-Michel brings his fiancée’s ultra-conservative parents home for dinner.
In 1996 the movie version The Birdcage brought this entertaining romp to the big screen and starred Robin Williams, Nathan Lane, and Gene Hackman. With its message of inclusion and acceptance, this show is more relevant today than ever, making this big summer musical comedy a great example of theater that matters.
