Don't Miss The La Cage aux Folles Broadway Revival

<p>La Cage aux Folles Broadway musical comedic splash is a great new addition for all fans of theater. The production is planted on The Great White Way for the third time and enjoying huge success at the box office as well as with critics. Coming as a direct import from the Menier Chocolate Factory in London where it has enjoyed huge success the Broadway production brings a mostly new cast including lead actors Kelsey Grammer and Douglas Hodge to the stage of the intimate Longacre Theatre. <p> The past two Broadway productions of "La Cage" where not met with great critical acclaim and a few respected critics took their shots at the previous productions. The original Broadway musical debuted back in 1983 where it won 6 Tony Awards including best musical, however, some critics saw the show as dated using harsh words such as old-fashioned. It seems hard to see a breakout musical which includes its fair share of dancing drag queens as old-fashioned for the 1980's time period but none the less critics seemed to be less than impressed. The revival of La Cage aux Folles Broadway enjoyed less success than the original. The revival came to New York City once again closing in on six years ago where it won 2 Tony Awards and was only able to last for a six month run. Again, critics were not blown away by the musical and the reviews once again less then stellar. <p> So the question many must be asking is "Why is the latest production having such great success?". The answer is rather simple, the latest musical installment of "La Cage" has been overhauled and revamped by the Menier Chocolate Factory, includes a well liked television star in Kelsey Grammer and has great songs by Jerry Herman, which include the popular and memorable "I Am What I Am" which was made even more popular with its cover by Gloria Gaynor. On top of this the latest revival to Broadway has won 3 Tony Awards for 2010 including Best Revival of a Musical and Best Actor in a Musical (Douglas Hodge). The successful runs at London's Menier Chocolate Factory and in the West End led to 7 Olivier Awards in 2009 and taking home Best Musical Revival and Best Actor in a Musical. <p> La Cage aux Folles Broadway is a thriving, fresh and fun revival, which has been breaking records at the box office each week for the Longacre Theatre. The chemistry between the two actors is nothing less than brilliant and brings some great comedic moments throughout the show. The songs of Jerry Herman are fun and entertaining most memorably "We Are What We Are," and "The Best of Times" which showcase Lynne Page's wonderful choreography and has the dancers moving effortlessly across the stage. Set a date, grab some tickets and grab a seat at the Longacre for what is sure to be one of the most exciting shows you will see on Broadway this year.
