Follies, which features one of Stephen Sondheim’s most brilliant scores, tells the story of a famous impresario who holds one last reunion of the casts of his annual Follies productions before the theatre bearing his name is to be torn down to make room for a parking garage.
On the stage of the old theatre, the performers gather for one more look back at their glory days, the grand music, lavish spectacles, the baggy pants comedians and beautiful showgirls. The theatre is also haunted by ghosts of the past who reappear to watch as these past Follies performers bring the theatre to life again – even if just for this one last night.
