Voted in the Top Ten of BBC Radio 2's The Nation's Number One Essential Musical, FOLLIES tells the story of the former showgirls of the Ziegfeld Follies, amidst a wealth of well-known songs, including Losing My Mind, Broadway Baby and I'm Still Here.

FOLLIES in Concert at the Royal Albert Hall marks the musical's dazzling return to London for the first time in 13 years, for one day only.

The production of Follies, featuring this exceptional cast and creative team is produced by SilverBlue Entertainment, in association with Elliot Davis, and will be performed tonight 28 April 2015 for one matinee (at 3pm) and one evening performance (at 7.30pm) only, in celebration of composer and lyricist Stephen Sondheim's 85th Birthday year.

The Follies' story is set around a reunion of the past performers of the "Weissman's Follies" and focuses on two couples who are attending the reunion, Buddy and Sally Durant Plummer, and Benjamin and Phyllis Rogers Stone, as well as some of the original "Follie's girls". The former performers are reuniting on the stage of the now-decrepit theater that was once their professional home, the night before it is turned into a parking lot. Phyllis and Sally, who were best friends in their Follies days, have married Ben and Buddy, respectively. The once-close foursome has fallen out of touch. As these aging starlets reminisce, they end up hashing out old affairs, remembering who loved (and loves) whom, and reliving the roads they did and didn't take.
