Each performer in the legendary line of long-legged lovelies is between 59 and 83 years YOUNG! As People Magazine wrote, "They sing, they dance, they're ancient and they draw sellout crowds"!

The Palm Springs Follies have started their all-new 16th season with the show entitled, Gotta Dance! (And, boy, do they ever!!!)
