Winner of the 1984 Tony Award for Best Musical and one of Broadway's biggest hits. Described as "a boisterous and uplifting celebration of family values," this musical tells the story of Albin and Georges, two middle-aged partners who run a drag nightclub in St. Tropez. Their outrageously resplendent peace turns to mayhem when their son announces that he is getting married to the daughter of a local morals crusader! Basis for the film "The Birdcage," starring Robin Williams and Nathan Lane.
