"Fierstein has somewhat deepened the original Poiret, chiefly by making it a story about personal acceptance and human dignity." Of course, one must not overlook Jerry Herman's songs "I Am What I Am," "Song on the Sand," "Look Over There", which provide much of the additional emotional content." Clive Barnes - The New York Post
After 20 years of bliss, Georges and Albin, two men partnered for better or worse, get a bit of both when Georges' son (fathered during a one-night fling) announces his impending marriage to the daughter of a bigoted, right-wing politician. Further complicating the situation is the "family business": Albin and Georges run a drag nightclub in St. Tropez, where Albin is the star performer, "Zaza." Georges reluctantly agrees to masquerade as "normal" when he meets the family of the bride-to-be. But Albin has other plans, with hilarious results.
