Jersey Boys  is the behind-the-music story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons.  They were just four guys from Jersey, until they sang their very first note. They had a sound nobody had ever heard… and the radio just couldn’t get enough of.  But while their harmonies were perfect on stage, off stage it was a very different story — a story that has made them an international sensation all over again. The show  features all their hits including “Sherry,” “Big Girls Don’t Cry,” “Oh What A Night,” “Walk Like A Man,” “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” and “Working My Way Back To You.”

Jersey Boys  opened in New York on November 6, 2005 and by the time it closed there on January 15, 2017, it was the 12th  longest running show in Broadway history, passing such original Broadway productions as  42nd Street,  Grease,  Fiddler on  the Roof, and  The Producers. Blessed by awards all over the world,  Jersey Boys  has been seen by over 27 million people.
