Inspired by the Folies Bergère of Paris, the Ziegfeld Follies
were conceived and mounted by Florenz Ziegfeld Jr.,
reportedly at the suggestion of his then-wife, the actress
and singer Anna Held. The shows’ producers were turn-
of-the-twentieth-century producing titans Klaw and Erlanger.

The Follies were a series of lavish revues, something between
later Broadway shows and the more elaborate high class
vaudeville and variety show. The first follies, The Follies of
1907, was produced that year at the Jardin de Paris roof
theatre.
