Ziegfeld Follies

Okay buddy, so the Ziegfeld Follies was a big show that used to happen a long time ago. It was like a fancy party with songs, dances, and lots of different performers who would all do something different. It was named after a man named Florenz Ziegfeld who came up with the idea for the party.

The show would happen every year and people would get really dressed up and go see it. It was a big deal because there were always famous people performing in it, like dancers, singers, and actors. The performers would wear really fancy clothes and do lots of cool things, like acrobatics and magic tricks.

People really loved the Ziegfeld Follies and it became famous all over the world. Even today, people still talk about how great it was!
