Signature Theatre presents the musical Follies, featuring a book by James Goldman and music & lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. They were once “Follies” girls, the most beautiful and dreamed about musical entertainment stars that defined popular culture between the two World Wars. This story is about what has happened to these women since their shining moment and to the American dreams they symbolized for a generation. The action of the show takes place at their faded theater, now scheduled for demolition, when a group of Follies girls reunite for a party thirty years after the theater closed its doors.
