Kind of sad to see all the productions of this pack-up at the same time. Saw it again recently and thought the show really held-up well, though most people in the audience had already seen the show more than once.
Both on Broadway and the West End, it had a nice long and successful run, and both runs are coming to an end. Everything eventually ends and shows do eventually close, I don't think that says anything about people being over it.
Also, Beautiful is still going strong both on Broadway and on the West End, so I don't think bio-musical or jukebox musicals are fading out.

Do they release any information to back this up? Like weekly grosses or yearly?
In our millions, in our billions, we are most powerful when we stand together. TW4C unwaveringly joins the worldwide masses, for we know our liberation is inseparably bound.

Also, there've now been professional, non-replica productions of Jersey Boys in Sweden, Japan, and the Philippines (probably more that I can't think of right now), so Valli/Gaudio/etc are probably satisfied with just closing up shop on the big guns and letting the licensing $$ roll in.
