“Follies” is a musical with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and a book by James Goldman. Several of its songs have become standards, including “Broadway Baby,” “I’m Still Here,” “Too Many Mornings,” “Could I Leave You?” and “Losing My Mind.” The play was nominated for eleven Tonys and won seven. “Follies” is set in a crumbling Broadway theatre, scheduled for demolition, during a reunion for all the past members of the “Weismann’s Follies,” a musical revue (based on the Ziegfeld Follies) which played in that theatre between the World Wars. The musical focuses on two couples, Buddy and Sally Durant Plummer and Ben and Phyllis Rogers Stone, who are attending the reunion. Sally and Phyllis were both showgirls in the Follies as were many of the other guests. Both marriages are having problems because Buddy, a traveling salesman, is having an affair with a girl on the road, Sally is still in love with Ben as she was years ago, and Ben is so self-absorbed that Phyllis feels emotionally abandoned. The two couples interact with each other and other partygoers, and throughout the first half, musical numbers from the old Follies are performed by the characters, sometimes accompanied by the ghosts of their former selves. Most of the songs are pastiches of songs by popular songwriters of the past. “Losing My Mind” is in the style of a George Gershwin ballad, The “God-Why-Don’t-You-Love-Me Blues” is in the style of Cole Porter and “Loveland” is akin to a 1920s Ziegfeld Follies …
