Palm Springs Follies..What a Show!!!

Palm Springs Follies..What a Show!!!  Just because I live in La Quinta doesn't mean I don't head into Palm Springs for some good night life once in awhile and today it was day life!  Took my mom to see the Matinee of the Palm Springs Follies.  What a great time. 

Sounds kind of creepy I know..dancers in their 80's (60's and up), but I am here to attest to the fact that these guys and gals are jumping around up there in one professional production number after another.  It feels like Vegas..and I am not exagerating.  You have to understand that I couldn't do it..there will be no tap dance lessons and poundage dropping here, but these are ALL professional dancers and singers..they've all got resumes that kick ***!

The oldest gal is 86 and the oldest man is 80.  I was with my mom and there is NO WAY she could've been doing that stuff..me neither, but that's beside the point. 

If you ever get a chance, this is a show not to be missed.  In it's 19th year, it is commonly accepted that the Follies put Palm Springs back on the map and I believe it.  The show is in the original theatre built in 1936, fantastic lighting and acoustics added in the 80's and just overall an extremely professional show. 

Costs about $50 to $80/ticket and the show is 3 hours long!!!  All the seats are great too..you can hear and see from the entire theatre and balcony.  Good fun..
This season's guest was Susan Antonand she belted them out-I didn't realize she had such a set of pipes!  There was also the best ventriloquist I have ever seen..just too darned good!

I cannot believe that I have'nt yet been to the Follies!  I had "saved" it for something to do with my Mom--- and now she is gone, and I still have'nt seen it.  I'm making a point to go this season FOR SURE!  Kathy
