As Broadway remains dark, BroadwayWorld wants to make sure that you still get your theatre fix each and every day until it's back. In our daily series Broadway Rewind, we're uncovering footage from the depths of our archives so that you can relive magical moments of Broadway past!

Today we flashback to 2011, when the second Broadway revival of Follies arrived at the Marquis Theatre, where it played for 152 performances. The revival starred Bernadette Peters, Jan Maxwell, Danny Burstein and Ron Raines in the leading roles.

When former members of the "Weismann Follies" reunite on the eve of their theater's demolition, two couples remember their past and face the harsher realities of the present. Reminiscing of their younger selves and the years gone by, the crumbling theater brings back memories for both couples of good times and bad.

Below, watch scenes from the 2011 revival!
