Win! Top price tickets to see La Cage aux Folles The sell-out Menier Chocolate Factory production La Cage aux Folles is transferring to the Playhouse Theatre for a strictly limited season, starring Douglas Hodge and Denis Lawson.

The idyllic existence of Georges and the dazzling drag artiste Albin, star of the La Cage aux Folles Club, is threatened when Georges’ son announces his engagement to the daughter of a right-wing politician, who wants to close down the local colourful nightlife!

With a visit from the prospective in-laws imminent, they all decide to take drastic action to hide their lifestyle – but can they keep it up?

Jerry Herman’s fabulous score includes I Am What I Am, The Best of Times and Song on the Sand.

La Cage aux Folles is a timeless and deliciously funny tale of family values, unconditional love and, above all, the need to celebrate who we are.

We have eight pairs of top priced tickets to give away to the performance on Wednesday, November 26.
