The National's revival of Sondheim's FOLLIES gets three big nods in this year's Evening Standard Theatre Awards shortlists, announced today. And seven shows, including two from the Menier Chocolate Factory, are named for audience voting for Best Musical...

Very rarely does a show come along that receives unanimous praise and adulation, after all, appealing to the wide ranging tastes of both audience and critics is a tough ask. The National Theatre's production of FOLLIES however, is one of those shows! It's been ages since we've seen such glowing reviews pouring in from far and wide and it's great to see the Sondheim classic 1971 musical still feels as fresh as ever! You can't be a true musical theatre lover without a bit of Sondheim, and we reckon FOLLIES is the perfect way to clock in a few hours of one of the greatest American composers...We've rounded up the best reviews and features so you can get your FOLLIES fix all in one place!

We always love the amazing concerts and unique performances at Live At Zedel and the announcement of their Autumn/Winter season has us - dare we say it - excited for the summer to end! *cue gasps from the front row!* The unique live entertainment concept at The Crazy Coqs will host loads of StageFaves over the next few months, so get your diary out, take a gander at the talent on show and get your booking fingers out...

We reckon it's going to be one of the biggest shows of the season, but the National Theatre's run of FOLLIES has just become even more exciting!

It's in the Dorfman so tickets are extremely limited, but you can enter a ballot to win the chance to get them...sign us up right now!

It's not very often a major UK theatre asks for our help, but The National Theatre has done just that! Their production of FOLLIES, which will run from this June until next January is one of their most ambitious to date, with a cast of 37 and 21 live musicians creating a spectacular show in the world famous Olivier Theatre. With that in mind, and a big budget needed to make it happen, the National Theatre have asked for our help...
