Synopsis
Winner of 53 Major awards worldwide, the Jersey Boys musical tells the remarkable rise to stardom of one of the most successful 1960s rock 'n roll groups, Franki Valli and The Four Seasons.
So how did four would-be wise guys from Newark, become one of the greatest successes in pop music history? Jersey Boys is the story of how a group of blue-collar boys from the wrong side of the tracks became Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons. Along the way they wrote their own songs, invented their own sounds and sold 175 million records worldwide!
Jersey Boys Broadway opened in 2005 and there have now been productions in Las Vegas, Chicago, Toronto, Melbourne and Sydney. The musical is directed by Des McAnuff, with choreography by Sergio Trujillo and the book is by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice Opening in February 2008 at the Prince Edward Theatre, Jersey Boys London won both the Laurence Olivier Award and our own Whatsonstage.com Award for Best New Musical. The London original cast included Ryan Molloy, Stephen Ashfield, Glenn Carter, and Philip Bulcock.
Jersey Boys songs include Big Girls Don't Cry, Can't Take My Eyes Off of You, Oh What a Night, Rag Doll and Sherry.

Jersey Boys, with a deft and engaging book by sometime Woody Allen co-writer Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice, is more than just another jukebox musical. It uses the songs of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, mostly written by Bob Gaudio (music) and Bob Crewe (lyrics), to both shape the outer success story and illuminate the inner tensions.
Thus the breakthrough hit, “Sherry”, arrives as a climactic concert number, the boys in red jackets doo-wapping like crazy and executing those rhythmically tight jive moves – spring-coiled choreography by Sergio Trujillo – that simultaneous...

Andrew - 4 June 2011:
Average 1st half. The story doesn't really kick off to the 2nd act and that is very strong. Not as good as Billy Elliot or Wicked, but a fun night and the show gets better through the evening. ...
