Sondheim's Follies: Tony-Winning Broadway Hit at the Ahmanson
- Full Price:
- $95.00 - $110.00
- Our Price:
- $47.50 - $55.00
The Kennedy Center's critically-acclaimed Broadway production of Stephen Sondheim's classic musical Follies, currently nominated for eight 2012 Tony Awards, comes to the Ahmanson Theatre, where it's receiving equally stellar reviews. It's the haunting story of two troubled couples who reunite at the decrepit theater where the ladies once performed, facing the ghosts of the past and the harsh reality of the present. Featuring a memorable score by Sondheim, including such enduring songs as "Broadway Baby," "Losing My Mind" and "I'm Still Here," the show is also a riveting look at the deterioration of the American dream -- a crack in the plaster of the gilded age of Broadway. Director Eric Schaeffer is joined by much of his original cast -- with 41 performers, it's one of the largest ever on this stage -- as well as a 28-piece orchestra. Tony Award-winner Victoria Clark joins the production, while reprising their roles from the New York show are 2012 Tony nominees Jan Maxwell, Danny Burstein and Ron Raines. Learn More

This dance company is young yet comes across extremely polish and ready for prime stage venues. It has about 20 members from all over the world.Written on Nov 06 2010
The show is in 3 parts and each is independent of the other.
The second act is not to be miss of how two dancers performance their joy and romance. At the conclusion of Act 2, the audience was giving a standing ovation.
Act 3 is the whole company as well as Act 1.
The execution and choreography was excellent and well worth going.
Even though Goldstar tickets are sold out, try going by any means either by CTG box office or Ticketmaster.
Friday evening mezzanine still had several good seats open. I don't know about the balcony turn out, yet get mezzanine seats to see the patterns and flow of all the dancers.
We met other Goldstar members and told others about Goldstar. It was very cool.

One of the best dance programs I've seen in a long time. Angel is in a class by himself.Written on Nov 08 2010

Brilliant! I have never heard such shouting from a ballet audience at the end of the evening. The Corellas, brother and sister, got standing bravos. The final piece, DGV, had the whole audience on their feet, screaming.Written on Nov 08 2010
The only problem in the evening was the amplified music, often painfully loud. It was always much louder than a live orchestra would have been, making it impossible to forget that we didn't have a live orchestra!
