Review: 'La Cage aux Folles' by Two Planks Theater Company
Bob Filipowich (Charles in 'Blithe Spirit) was superb in the leading role of Georges; he brought sophistication and charm to the role.
The people of Two Planks Theater Company in Monroe pride themselves on being dedicated to the idea of building community through theater and providing every individual with the opportunity to grow through self-expression and performance. This small company built upon the two planks that troubadours would lay over their wagons as their stage continues to grow and is in the midst of their third season at their winter home at the United Methodist Church in Monroe. The founders of Two Planks are grateful to their host during this production of ‘La Cage Aux Folles’ for “sharing our vision of inclusivity and acceptance through open hearts, open minds, and open doors.”

It was great to see almost every seat taken at the performance I attended for this little gem of a theatre company. This summer Two Planks will present three outdoor productions, ‘Aladdin, Jr.,’ ‘Footloose,’ and ‘Spamalot,’ under the stars Monroe’s Wolfe Park.
