REVIEWS

“Little big musical. A captivating show.”

“Five great musicians and eight young performers who sing and dance fifteen powerful musical numbers, do not need the crutches of nostalgia or any legend to show their ability, security and boldness. Three virtues in Follies which shine in unison or separately.”

“The performers of Follies make a perfectly cohesive, warm and close group which manages to seduce the audience more and better than some large format musicals.”
