What happens when the son of a middle-aged gay couple brings home the daughter of an arch-conservative politician — and her parents — for dinner? Musical comedy ensues!

In this beloved, award-winning musical, Georges and Albin enjoy a charmed life on the French Riviera as proprietor and star of a glitzy drag club. When their son gets engaged to the daughter of a politician, the limits of love, family, and mascara are put to the test. In the spirit of joy, love, and a lot of laughter during the holiday season, Alley Rep. continues its Christmas Extravaganza tradition of bringing audiences a show you won’t forget!

“Timely and important, and most importantly, fun. ” A groundbreaking, six-time Tony award-winning musical from Tony and Grammy Award winner Jerry Herman (Hello, Dolly!, Mame) and four-time Tony Award winner Harvey Fierstein (Kinky Boots, Newsies), La Cage is the only musical to win the Tony Award for Best Revival of a Musical twice (2005 & 2010.)
