what is
ZE FOLLIES DORÉE?
Ze Follies Dorée! is a musical-sketch-comedy show created by writer/performers Karl Amundson and Tom Meglio. Ze Follies draws its inspiration from Vaudeville (without ze racism), the Moulin Rouge (without ze budget), and the irreverent bacchanalia of our modern times (without the end-times vibes).
As of February 2025, ZE FOLLIES DORÉE: ON (off) BROADWAY! is running Off-Broadway at the AMT Theater. In addition to their Off Broadway Residency, Ze Follies has performed to sold-out crowds at The Slipper Room, UCB, Caveat, and had a 2024 Main-stage Residency at The Brooklyn Comedy Collective.
Come to Ze Follies to experience "French New York," drag-queen fantasias, singing chickens, dirty barbershop quartets, curious can-cans, off-kilter advertisements, and endless encores. It will be a night you will never forget. Oui promise.
