LA CAGE AUX FOLLES

In the organizer's words:

Georges and Albin run a nightclub in St. Tropez - one as manager, the other as diva. And together they lead a happy couple's life. However, things go completely off the rails when Georges' son suddenly wants to get married - to the daughter of an ultra-conservative politician, of all people! Georges and Albin are persuaded to play a "completely normal" family for a dinner with the future in-laws. Of course, this can only go wrong ...

Jean Poiret wrote his successful comedy deep in the 70s, when same-sex marriage was far from reality and being gay was still far from being a "good thing". Since 1983, the turbulent and rousing plea for tolerance, equality and individual freedom in musical form has been conquering stages around the world, playing 2423 performances on Broadway alone and becoming an anthem of the LGBTQIA+ movement, true to the motto: "I am what I am!".
