The Olivier Award-winning Follies returns to the National Theatre in richer, deeper, more resonant form and just blows me away.
FOLLIES – National Theatre
We should never be afraid to attack sacred cows. And when sacred cows are also cash cows, we should never be afraid to kick them in their milky udders
Critical consensus: National’s Follies revival is a sumptuous ensemble hit
What do you need to know about Dominic Cooke’s revival of Stephen Sondheim’s Follies at the National Theatre? It’s a great big, sumptuous, stellar hit.
FOLLIES – National Theatre ★★★★
Not a harsh word can be uttered about any of the big Sondheim numbers, or against the stellar cast – especially the women. Imelda Staunton, Janie Dee, Tracie Bennett, Josephine Barstow – be still my beating heart!
