        Summary: In a soon to be demolished theatre on Broadway in New York in the 1970s, a reunion of Weissman's Follies, the glamorous show that ran there every year from 1918-1935, is commencing. We follow two married couples as they attempt to cope with the memories of their former life at the Follies and their current problems, and we watch the ghosts of the performers from the show return to life, stirred up by their older selves' return. Finally, early in the hours of the next morning, the couples leave to continue their lives, laying their memories to rest forever.
