We saw the Follies last week. It was the 4th time we've had that pleasure in the last 6 years. It is always a delightful expereince, and this years' show did not disappoint. The talent, the costumes, the clever acts, and the Crown Prince of humor, Riff Markowitz, combine to deliver a fun-filled afternoon, or evening. Be warned that anyone... more

Anyone who desires an evening of being pampered, ultimately entertained, laughing frequently, and being dazzled by unique and beautiful costumes, while being captivated by sheer talent, ingenuity, and originality, blended with stimulating memories and unforgettable characters and songs, should not even think about missing the Palm Springs Follies. Wow! What a professional and entertaining array of talent, beautiful costumes, variety... more

My daughter, age 33, and I both loved this show. We saw a big production in Los Angeles several months ago and thought this show was so much better. No chance to get bored with this amazing show! Kudos to the PS Folllies Joanne Abrum Jennifer Moller more

The Palm Springs Follies is an inspirational experience with something for everyone. We were entertained for three hours by beautiful "girls", beautiful costumes, beautiful singing, inspirational dancing, and great humor. It's a big deal and well worth it. No trip to the Palm Springs area would be complete without seeing the Follies. more

The Follies is a true variety show. The dancers so clearly love what they do; the variety acts are a return to old time entertainment; the headliner (Freda Payne) sang standards, songs from her touring show and, of course, her hit "Band of Gold." Ziff is the perfect host, funny and truly respectful of his talented performers. Granted, the Follies... more

This has been the highlight of our trip to Palm Springs every year. My wife is 54 and I'm 63. So we're happy to see in recent years some more music from the 1950s, such as doo wop. The show is hilarious, and the dancing is great. From about the 10th row back, you can't tell how old the dancers... more

It's always great and encouraging to see the human mind and body endure. I don't understand, however, why the women are idolized and the men treated more poorly. They are all in their 60s/70s/80s and should be equally respected. We enjoyed seeing the mature members perform but it was much diluted with (the producer's) Riff Markowitz's Bronx-style schmutz dusty "comedy... more

I see this show every year and I still cry at the end with all the patriotic themed songs and costumes. Everything is great from the singing to the dancing, from the costumes to the sets, and it is about the funniest show around! Everyone needs to go! more

Went to a recent show with my wife (29) and Dad (64) and we were blown away. This isn't a show, it's an experience. You feel like you're going back to a simpler time and seeing the entertainment of vaudeville. The performers are sexy, the show is professional and the emcee, Riff Markowitz, is witty and talented. We were amazed... more

The Follies is like a time capsule that is magically opened each time you visit. Nostalgia takes center stage as singers and dancers perform various numbers in a vaudevillian-esque, themed production that is intertwined with various music and comedy acts. Oh, did I mention that the entire troupe is over 55 years old? Riff Markowitz, the founder of the Follies,... more
