    Director Hal Prince took his inspiration for the basic tone of the show from a photograph of what famous Hollywood star of the past?Sondheim's "Follies"

      Gloria Swanson. Prince was inspired by a photograph of Swanson standing, with outstretched arms, amid the rubble of the demolished Roxy Theater (the Roxy had opened in the twenties with a film starring Swanson entitled "The Loves of Sunya").

    Near the beginning of the play, former "Follies" impresario Dmitri Weisman greets his former performers and welcomes them to their first - and last - reunion. What is the occasion of this reunion?Sondheim's "Follies"

      The theater is being demolished.. Weisman tells them that, since the Follies ended, the theater "...has been a home to ballet, rep, movies, blue movies, and now, in a final burst of glory, it's to be...a parking lot!"

    The show's principal characters are two couples, Phyllis and Ben Stone and Sally and Buddy Plummer. They met years before; Ben and Buddy were close friends, as were Sally and Phyllis, who were in the Follies together as chorus girls. Which of the four, according to the script, has changed the most drastically since then?Sondheim's "Follies"

      Phyllis. Sally and Buddy haven't fundamentally changed much. Ben has changed somewhat from his younger, more idealistic self and is undergoing a severe midlife crisis. However Phyllis, once a vulnerable, sweet, and romantic girl, has become hard-bitten and cynical, largely because of her unhappy marriage to Ben.

    Although Sally eventually married Buddy and Phyllis eventually married Ben, Sally and Ben were once in love. Sally, in fact, still loves Ben and wishes she had married him. Buddy realizes this, and has started having an affair with a younger woman. What is her name?Sondheim's "Follies"

      Margie. Buddy sings about Margie in both of his songs, "The Right Girl" and "Buddy's Blues". In both these songs, it is clear that he really still loves Sally.

    Which couple sings the duet "Rain on the Roof"?Sondheim's "Follies"

      Emily and Stuart Whitman. "Rain on the Roof", a brief, lighthearted number about a couple getting romantic while stuck indoors during a rainstorm, is sung by husband and wife duo Emily and Stuart Whitman. It is the first of a group of three numbers which are performed together; the other two are "Ah, Paree!" and "Broadway Baby".

    In the song "Broadway Baby", what are the only three things in the girl's flat?Sondheim's "Follies"

      Her cat, a bed, and a chair.. "Broadway Baby", a song about a young hopeful starting on the rough road to fame and fortune, is sung by a sixtyish veteran performer named Hattie Walker. She sings "At my tiny flat, there's just my cat, a bed, and a chair. Still, I'll stick it 'til I'm on a bill all over Times Square!"
