ABOUT

The Birdcage, the movie that brought a political scandal into a Miami drag club to create a raucously hilarious comedy about an unorthodox family is being brought to life at the Masque Theatre in Muizenberg.

Written by Elaine May, "The Birdcage" starring Robin Williams and Nathan Lane set the record for the top-grossing movie with openly gay characters of all time.

The stage adaptation, directed by the CATA award Barrie Howard and starring; Mark Wilkes and David Waugh as Armand and Albert respectively, promises to live up to the reputation of the film. With onstage drag artists and all the favourite moments captured from the movie, this is definitely an adaptation not to miss.

"The funniest, most outrageous, campest comedy you'll see this year"

Armand & Albert have built the perfect life for themselves tending to their gaudy Miami "drag" club. But their pastel tranquility is shaken when Armand`s son announces that he is getting married to the daughter of ultra-conservative Senator Keeley... and they`re all getting together for dinner!

Can Armand and Albert transform themselves into Mr. and Mrs. "Family Values" in time? It`ll take the performance of their lives, but they will do anything and everything to pull the chiffon over Keeley`s eyes.

This show will have you laughing in the aisles!
