Follies musical

Experience Broadway's Finest with TicketPurchase.com

Show Information

Few musicals in Broadway history have achieved the creative ambition and emotional depth of Follies. The Follies musical premiered on April 4, 1971 at the Winter Garden Theatre on Broadway in New York City, and it remains one of Stephen Sondheim’s most celebrated works. This original musical features music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim with a book by James Goldman, and the original Broadway production was directed by Harold Prince with choreography by Michael Bennett.

After opening at the Winter Garden Theatre, Follies later moved to the Broadway Theatre and closed on July 1, 1972. While the original run is long closed, the show has been frequently revived and is commonly licensed and produced regionally, keeping its singular “show-within-a-show” experience alive for new audiences.

The show’s legacy is backed by major recognition. At the 1972 Tony Awards, Follies won Best Original Score (Stephen Sondheim), Best Direction of a Musical (Harold Prince), Best Choreography (Michael Bennett), and Best Costume Design (Florence Klotz). It’s also widely regarded as a landmark Sondheim–Prince collaboration, noted for its ambitious scale and psychologically incisive storytelling.

Story Summary

At a reunion in a decaying Broadway theatre slated for demolition, former “Follies” showgirls gather to reminisce. As the night unfolds, past and present collide—memories take shape onstage as the couples confront regret, aging, and the roads not taken.

What makes Follies so electrifying is how it blends lavish revue-style spectacle with intimate, often painful drama. The musical’s “show-within-a-show” structure juxtaposes glamorous pastiche stage numbers with psychologically detailed scenes, and productions often externalize memory by placing ghostly younger selves alongside the present-day characters. With Sondheim’s score shifting between era-evoking showpieces and razor-sharp character songs, the experience can feel both grand and uncomfortably personal—in the best way.
