ABOUT
First Production Produced in Rochester! Oh, what a night! How did a group of blue-collar boys from the wrong side of the tracks become one of the biggest American pop music sensations of all time?
Jersey Boys is the smash-hit musical that gives us the true, sometimes gritty, and always spectacularly entertaining story of falsetto idol Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons. The blue-collar boys in the shiny Lurex suits strode onto the scene in 1965, wowing the public for 20 years with hits such as ‘Big Girls Don't Cry,’ ‘Oh What a Night,’ ‘Walk Like a Man,’ ‘Beggin,’ ‘Sherry’ and many more. But before fame and fortune came a difficult, and sometimes not entirely legal, journey to stardom.
Since its debut in 2005, Jersey Boys has become a must-see, embedding itself in the American musical theater landscape, winning 4 Tony Awards on Broadway and proving that the rags to riches, to rags again, story is an ever-enduring theme!
