First it's "La Cage aux Folles".
Second why on earth aren't men allowed to be dressers, they are usually very good even the straight ones. (Disclaimer: I unreservedly apologise to everyone.)
Thirdly: In the one night touring industry in the UK especially with the old school performers, we almost always were given 20 pounds or more by the tour headliner "To buy the crew a drink." I also believed that tips for dressers were standard. In Stratford on Avon the dressers were usually volunteers who simply wanted to work at the RSC. The only income they got was tips from the cast. This may have changed in the last ten or so years.
