Key West, FL – The Waterfront Playhouse proudly announces its vibrant and heartwarming production of “La Cage Aux Folles”, running February 26 through March 22, 2025. Starring beloved Key West performers David Black and Phillip Cole White, this Tony Award-winning musical is a joyous celebration of love, family, acceptance, and the power of being true to yourself.
Set in a glamorous St. Tropez nightclub, “La Cage Aux Folles” tells the story of Georges, a nightclub owner, and Albin, his partner and star performer. Their lives are turned upside down when Georges’ son announces his engagement to the daughter of a conservative politician. What follows is a delightful, laugh-out-loud, and heartfelt tale of love conquering all, set against a backdrop of dazzling costumes and show-stopping musical numbers.
Directed by the Waterfront Playhouse’s Artistic Director, Patrick New, and featuring musical direction by Roberta Jackshyn and choreography by Lauren Thompson, this production promises all the flair, humor, and charm that has made “La Cage Aux Folles” a beloved classic.
“This story of acceptance, family, and joy is exactly what we all need right now,” says New. “We can’t wait to bring this timeless tale to the Waterfront stage and to Key West audiences.”
