★★★★★ “Wonderful fun, packed with emotion” – Telegraph

The Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre presents a glorious new revival of classic musical La Cage aux Folles.

Featuring songs by Jerry Herman (Hello Dolly!) and a book by Harvey Fierstein (Funny Girl, Newsies), La Cage aux Folles is packed full of show-stopping numbers including “I am What I Am” and “The Best of Times”.

A great cast includes Carl Mullaney (Chicago, Les Misérables) as Albin, and Billy Carter (A Moon For The Misbegotten) as Georges, with Debbie Kurup (The Cher Show) as Jacqueline, and John Owen-Jones (The Great British Bake Off Musical, Les Miserables) as Edward Dindon.

Directed by Timothy Sheader, La Cage aux Folles is now playing at Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre to 23 September 2023.

Georges, Albin and their son Jean-Michel re-discover the true meaning of family, and of putting yourself last so that the ones you love can come first.
