The Birdcage

In this episode of The Art of Costume Podcast, our hosts head to South Beach to celebrate the 30th anniversary of The Birdcage. From Albert's dazzling life as Starina and Armand's effortlessly chic nightclub-owner style to the unforgettable fashions of the Birdcage performers, every costume is larger than life. Along the way, we celebrate the iconic work of costume designer Ann Roth, Spencer goes on and on about Christine Baranski, and yes, we absolutely have to talk about Gene Hackman in drag.

So pour yourself a pirin tablet and join us for a joyful celebration of one of cinema's most beloved comedies.
