La Cage

We had great fun today, seeing Christopher Sieber and Todd Thurston (understudy to George Hamilton) in the Broadway Across America production of La Cage Aux Folles, the Jerry Herman-Harvey Fierstein musical- the first show ever to win THREE Tony awards for best production. I was really looking forward to seeing Mr. Hamilton up close and personal, however, his understudy filled in today, and did a very good job. La Cage on Broadway, with Kelsey Grammer, has closed, and I once saw the Grammers having dinner at Two Bunch Palms Spa, where I was staying at the time. Camille Grammer has since been known recently for her performance in The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. If you get a chance to see this revival of La Cage, do, it's still a great show! DF *****
