Director Seo Byung Kyu who is in charge of the choreography for ‘La Cage’ remarked, “It would not be a stretch to say that I was born to [direct] ‘La Cage’. I am so happy to be able to display this performance for the Korean fans.


The techniques of the group dances consume a lot of physical energy, however, we will be able to introduce new entertainment to the audience that’s fresh and different,” he continued.


A representative from AGA Company remarked, “After we began our rehearsals in May, the cast members have been sweating bullets working as one in order to more perfectly refine the show. They openly share their ideas and thoughts and manage to maintain an upbeat and enjoyable atmosphere during rehearsals.”


‘La Cage Aux Folles’ is a joint project put on by AGA Company, CJ E&M, and PMC Productions. The musical tells the story of a gay couple: Georges, the owner of a trendy nightclub, and his partner and main attraction, Albin, and the events that unfold when their son Jean-Michel brings home his fiancée’s conservative parents to meet his own. It is a fresh and different kind of comedy that is sure to offer laughs and tears to the audience members.
