"'La Cage is another impressive bit of handiwork from Gardiner, who was responsible for Signature’s sensational revival this past winter of West Side Story. Buoyant and sleek, this incarnation of Herman and Fierstein’s musical also allows us to reflect on the more serious implications of the story. If Signature can accomplish this with a musical that on other occasions has seemed merely politically correct and frilly, there is no telling what else this company can do."- Peter Marks, The Washington Post
