BWW Exclusive: FOLLIES Farewell Series - Jan Maxwell

BroadwayWorld.com is excited to present a new series of artwork created by Broadway ad agency Serino/Coyne to celebrate the end of FOLLIES' Broadway run and to remind everyone that time is running out to see this beautiful production. The Kennedy Center's critically acclaimed Broadway production of James Goldman and Stephen Sondheim's Tony Award®-winning musical "Follies" closes at Broadway's Marquee Theatre on January 22. 

The photo below features Jan Maxwell who plays Phyllis in the show. 

After Broadway, the show will transfer to the Center Theatre Group/Ahmanson Theatre in Los Angeles for six weeks only, May 3 through June 9, 2012. The opening is scheduled for May 9. 

With book by James Goldman and music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, "Follies" is directed by Eric Schaeffer with choreography by Warren Carlyle and music direction by James Moore.

The production features scenic design by Derek McLane, costume design by Gregg Barnes, lighting design by Natasha Katz, sound design by Kai Harada and the original orchestrations by Jonathan Tunick.

When former members of the "Weismann Follies" reunite on the eve of their theatre's demolition, two couples remember their past and face the harsher realities of the present. Reminiscing about their younger selves and the years gone by, the crumbling theatre brings back memories for both couples of good times and bad. Containing such well-known songs as "Broadway Baby," "I'm Still Here," "Too Many Mornings," "Could I Leave You?" and "Losing My Mind," "Follies" echoes the songs, exuberance and romance of the vaudeville days between the two World Wars.

Tickets for "Follies" on Broadway are available through www.Ticketmaster.com, by calling (877) 250-2929, and in person at the Marquis Theatre box office. The New 2011 Broadway Cast Recording for "Follies" is now available on PS Classics. For more information on the Broadway production, visit www.folliesbroadway.com.
