The impact of the production, as a whole, is powerful. It is our second visit, and no one should visit Palm Springs without taking in the Follies. That said, I find the darksided ethnic jokes to be boring and distastefull. The world is full of funny things, and humor should leave one with a deeper appreciation of irony and a light hearted feeling. ...

Always a Surprise
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/29/09
Just when you think that Riff could not improve on his last seasons shows, don't bet, because you would be wrong.
Having gone to the Follies, many times, I am always deeply, impressed by the quality of a new show and it's theme.
How that man and his shows do better than the last season, is amazing.
Riff's selection of guest ...

Warmed-Over Fare
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/22/09
Our third time this year and we were deeply disappointed in the lack of freshness, creativity, number of acts, and a feeling of everybody being "tired" of doing this. To be honest, cannot recommend this show until someone steps in and makes it crisp, truly funny, and creative again. Wish we could have been more delighted--we weren't!

No Disappoint Here !!

After having been to Palm Springs many times, but never while the Follies was 'in season', I finally had the opportunity to arrive at the Plaza Theatre and enjoy the current show, Let The Good Times Roll. Good show, Susan Anton was great but the best part was inviting us in to the lives of the entertainers by introducing them one by one and letting them speak to us.

We have just returned to Illinois from our yearly stay in Palm Desert. This has been our fifth visit to the Follies. I cannot imagine being out there and not seeing the newest review. It is always a pleasure. My husband thought the ventriloquist was super. I am the same age as Susan Anton but somehow I don't look like her :-) We ...

One of the Best Shows Yet
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/18/09
I've been coming to this show every year for the last 16 or 17 years. Sometimes twice a year. I have never been disappointed and have bragged about it to friends and family and they have bought tickets. You never cease to completely entertain. This year's show was wonderful. Susan Anton was a real delight. What an entertainer!! And ...
I took my sister and friend and we were very impressed with the show. The ventriloquist was the best we have ever seen. We loved the dancers and the costumes were fabulous. Susan Anton's voice was beautiful and her performance was great.

What a surprise!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/09/09
Last week was my second visit to the Follies. The first time (Jan. 2009) was with a group from a club I belong to. At that time I had no idea whatsoever who or what I was going to see. When I got to the theater, I did realize that the show must consist of older performers - I gleaned that from posters around, etc. I thought perhaps this was going ...

My Australian friends were really impressed.
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/08/09
It was tremendous. After paying nearly $300 to treat my Australian friends to the show, I thought it was worth every penny, until I met an elderly lady in the lobby and she said that was the best $10 I ever spent. I thought how could that be when I paid so much. She said she came on a bus tour, but even then I cannot believe it only costing $10. ...
