About the show

About

Limited Engagement: **June 17 - 28, 2026**
**“A glittering, fast-stepping extravaganza.”** \-Daily News
This Tony-winning musical comedy tells a story of love, family, and acceptance—and, of course, the greatest drag show on the French Riviera! Emmy, Grammy, and Tony winner **Billy Porter** (_Pose_, Encores! _Jelly’s Last Jam_) stars as the fabulous Albin in this heartfelt show from Lifetime Achievement Tony Award winners **Harvey Fierstein** and **Jerry Herman**. Directed by **Robert O’Hara** (_A Raisin in the Sun_, Encores! _Jelly’s Last Jam_), this production is the first to feature an all-Black cast.
Albin and Georges have been happily married for over 20 years, jointly running La Cage Aux Folles, a drag nightclub in St. Tropez while also raising their son, Jean-Michel. Chaos and hilarity ensue when Jean-Michel decides to invite over his fiancée’s parents—who just so happen to be right-wing politicians. They’re in for a surprise, and “A Little More Mascara,” in this gem of a musical. This Encores! production will feature the lush original 1983 orchestrations, not heard live since the show’s original Broadway run.
