Sondheim and Schaeffer together again! The sweeping grandeur of Sondheim's Follies brings a surreal grace to Signature's intimate playing space when Eric Schaeffer tackles one of the master's greatest works. The story of aging chorines who return to their glory days for a hindsight glimpse of roads not taken, Follies boasts some of Sondheim's greatest accomplishments - from "Losing My Mind" to "I'm Still Here" and "Broadway Baby." Heart-wrenching in its intimacy, epic in its theatrical scope, Follies takes Signature Theatre back to its classic Broadway roots.

Music & Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
Book by James Goldman
Directed by Eric Schaeffer
