“Open Your Eyes. You Have Arrived.”
PicksInSix® Review | Ed Tracy

The universally uplifting musical “La Cage Aux Folles” with its message of overcoming prejudice and embracing acceptance is currently playing in a superb Music Theater Works revival at the North Shore Center for Performing Arts. The show, under the direction of Kyle A. Dougan, is every bit as fresh, buoyant and necessary today as it was nearly 40 years ago when it made a definitive statement about gay rights and won over Broadway. With soaring melodies, high-stepping heels and bursting with heart, this production features a blistering performance by Ginger Minj as Albin, the famed headliner of a drag nightclub who together with her 20-year manager/partner/lover Georges, played magnificently by Jason Richards, redefine the meaning of love.
