The time is 1971, and the theatrical impressario Dimitri Weissmann is hosting a reunion of his ex-Follies performers in his about-to-be demolished theater. The stage is set for the parade of brilliant 1920's, 30's and 40's pastiche numbers that have become every bit as famous as their models. Amidst the reminiscing, two middle-age couples confront some unpleasant truths about their past and present and come face to face with their future.

Featuring some of Sondheim’s most well-known songs, including “Losing My Mind,” “I’m Still Here,” and “Broadway Baby,” Follies juxtaposes innocence with sophistication, harsh reality with surrealism, and the dreams of what will be with the regrets of what was.
