- Synopsis:
The incomparable Stephen Sondheim brought his sensational "Follies" to the stage in 1971 where it was hailed as "monumental theater" by The New Vork Times. Fourteen years later the magic was recreated by an unparalleled gathering of stage and screen luminaries performing with the New York Philharmonic at Lincoln Center for a wildly enthusiastic audience. This one-night-only performance became a legendary event in Broadway history...Follies In Concert! The evolution of this unique, historic event is exclusively captured in this film, from the first rehearsal - just days before the show! - to the last second backstage butterflies just before the curtain rose. This is a rare treasure for all fans of musical theater. Follies In Concert - the hottest ticket of the season!
