La Cage aux Folles, a musical by Harvey Fierstein and Jerry Herman, returns to The Muny for the first time in nearly four decades. The story follows Georges and Albin, a couple whose lives are turned upside down when their son decides to marry the daughter of a conservative politician. As tensions rise, the backdrop of their drag nightclub, where Albin performs as "Zaza," adds to the comedic yet heartfelt exploration of family dynamics. This beloved show features memorable songs including "I Am What I Am" and "The Best of Times."
