Stephen Sondheim's Follies
Nostalgia, as the old saying goes, isn't what it used to be.

Veteran showgirls have assembled in a Broadway theater on the verge of demolition. Once upon a time, they were Weismann’s ‘girls’. Now, they’re wisecracking, post-menopausal dames with feet to cut loose, heartbreak to holler about, and philandering husbands to call out. And—to top it off—each character is haunted by her past, with the bejeweled, ostrich-plumed ghost of her younger self roaming around in the shadows. Sondheim's Follies reminds us about the perils of living in the past; we simply must face reality and carry on.

With an enormous cast of 37 and a 21-piece orchestra, the critics raved:
• Take your mum, take your grandmother, take your ex or go solo—just don’t miss this, it’s flawless. - Time Out
• Unmissable. Razzmatazz, poignancy and cracking songs. - Daily Telegraph
• Produces tears, cackles and goosebumps—sometimes all together. - The Sunday Times
• 2017 Olivier Award-winner for Best Musical Revival
