This Tony-winning musical of love, family, and acceptance was the first to center its story around a gay couple—who happen to run the greatest drag show on the French Riviera. Directed by Robert O’Hara with Guest Music Director Joseph Joubert, the Encores! production features an all-Black cast for the first time led by Emmy, Grammy, and three-time Tony Award-winning artist Billy Porter as the fabulous Albin, bringing a new dimension to the show’s core themes of identity and belonging. With a book by Harvey Fierstein and music and lyrics by Jerry Herman, the tuneful score includes the delightful duet “With You on My Arm” and prideful anthem “I Am What I Am.”
