Synopsis
On the surface, FOLLIES is about a reunion of retired performers, meeting up one last time in their old crumbling theater, the night before it is to be torn down. But on closer examination, Follies is a surreal, heart-wrenching examination of a life in the theater and “the road you didn’t take.” Our goal is to make this production a celebration of some of the great actors and actresses who have been lighting up valley stages for decades.
