Michael Bennett & Follies
A guest essay by Natalie Guevara
"Part Two of my guest essay on Michael Bennett was published on The Sondheim Hub today. This time, I explore Bennett and his co-choreographer Bob Avian's work on the original Broadway production of "FOLLIES" (1971)—which marked the first show where Bennett served not only as choreographer but also as co-director (alongside Hal Prince).
Thanks again to The Sondheim Hub for having me. It's my favorite publication on Substack. I hope you all have a chance to read. Please let me know what you think if you do!
I'm also working on a larger project to honor Michael Bennett's creative legacy. If you're interested in learning more, or even potentially participating (!), please get in touch with me: natalie.guevara@gmail.com"
