Thanks to Barrie Kosky's flamboyant imagination and a solid cast, the Komische Oper's new production of La Cage aux Folles glitters, but could be more gay.

Komische Oper's re-imagining of Nico Dostal's 1933 operetta makes for delightfully escapist, romantic evening out, while Christoph Marti's superb drag performance of the title role makes it a memorable one.

L’équipe du Komische Oper redonne des ailes aux beaux oiseaux de La Cage aux folles, dans la mise en scène de Barrie Kosky : un condensé d’humour, de bonne humeur et de contemporanéité.
