Quite a few characters have plots and motivated actions IN the party, be it about a relationship or a career or personal reinvention or finding some damn ice... a lot of strains of story and drive and backgrounds to follow, many of which not only intersect and feed off each other, but play out and come to a head in ways the effect the course of the night and the outcome of the play, all of which are happening in the reality of the play/setting, rather than some of that happening in memory/flashback and in a theatrical metaphor/psychological limbo. Follies is mostly the 2 couples, and the other characters only come into play in stand alone thematically relevant musings and memories and songs, or in relation to interacting with the 4 people in the 2 couples.
