Follies
~ Stephen Sondheim & James Goldman - Script & Lyrics only - 1559361964

On the eve of its destruction, the once-glorious Weissman Theatre is filled with the ghosts of its past as show-girls from 40 years ago reunite to glamorize the old days and relive bygone memories of promise and splendor

For two jaded middle-aged couples, coming face-to-face with what might have been proves to be a shattering experience ...

The genius script by Sondheim and Goldman makes a cinematic, nightmarish hallucination of past and present blended together, employing lush era musical theatre pastiche and a deft eye for storytelling to tell not only the story of Ben, Phyllis, Sally and Buddy, but also the story of how the promise of America between the World Wars disintegrated into memory

Considered by many to be one of the best American musicals of all time, and is still at the peak of form and craft.
