Putting It Together

Make the Most of Your Music – Follies (with Colm Molloy)


Listen Later

The 1987 London version of Follies decided to change how the show ended. Out was the original ending of Live, Laugh, Love and instead was this song. Colm Molloy joins Kyle to figure out which ending might be better and why it's probably not this one.
