The Will Rogers Follies

The Will Rogers Follies is a Tony Award–winning Broadway hit that celebrates the life and legacy of Will Rogers through the glittering spectacle of a Ziegfeld Follies-style revue. Blending rope tricks, show-stopping production numbers, and the glamour of the 1920s, the musical traces Rogers’ journey from Oklahoma cowboy to one of the most beloved entertainers in American history. Known for his homespun wit and timeless observation, “I never met a man I didn’t like,” Rogers became the most popular and highest-paid star of his era, conquering stage, film, radio, newspapers, and live appearances. Winner of six 1991 Tony Awards—including Best Musical, Best Score, Best Direction, Best Choreography, Best Costume Design, and Best Lighting Design—this dazzling production honors a uniquely American icon whose humor and wisdom continue to resonate today.
