Huddersfield has had to wait 25 years so see a production of La Cage aux Folles produced in the town.

As a long-running Paris boulevard comedy, later as a highly original classic film, and more recently as one of the decade’s biggest Broadway musicals and a major hit in the West End at the Palladium, La Cage aux Folles has millions of fans.

Jerry Herman’s music and Harvey Fierstein’s book add new dimensions to the story of the gay lovers whose twenty years of domestic tranquillity are shattered when a son, fathered during a one-night heterosexual fling, decides to marry the daughter of a bigoted politician.

With original West End spectacular costumes and fantastic scenery don’t miss this long awaited Huddersfield premiere by Huddersfield Light Opera Company. Renowned for its lavish productions, this company have pulled out all the stops to make this one a show to remember.
