JERSEY BOYS hosted the "Oh What A Night" event in collaboration with Eiffel Tower Restaurant. Guests joined together for this unique culinary event at the restaurant, raising more than $10,000 to benefit the Red Cross of Southern Nevada's Service to Armed Forces program.

At 4 p.m., JERSEY BOYS cast members Graham Fenton (Frankie Valli), Deven May (Tommy DeVito), Jeff Leibow (Nick Massi) and Rob Marnell (Bob Gaudio) joined acclaimed Chef Joho in the Eiffel Tower Restaurant kitchen, donning specially designed chef coats to prepare for the event. VIP package holders gathered alongside the cast and Chef for an exclusive cooking demonstration, joining in conversation and laughter as they prepared a selection of delectable treats and specialty cocktails. Guests sampled delicious French cuisine consisting of Foie Gras with persimmons, Osetra Caviar on Blinis, Gougères and Smoked Salmon on Brioche. Crafted cocktails, including the JERSEY BOYS signature cocktail "Sherry Baby," were prepared by Eiffel Tower mixologists for the group to try.

Following the demonstration, guests traveled to the dining room to join the other attendees, engaging in conversation with the JERSEY BOYS cast, Chef Joho and American Red Cross representatives. Radio hosts, Carla Rea (96.3 KKLZ-FM) and Bill Meyer (KMED-AM 1440, Medford, OR), emceed the event and led a silent auction featuring donations from Paris Las Vegas Hotel & Casino, JERSEY BOYS, Eiffel Tower Restaurant and others. Scott Emerson, CEO of the American Red Cross (Southern Nevada Chapter), and Chief Development Officer Jennifer Ramieh concluded the event, thanking guests for their contributions to the military community and the Service to Armed Forces program.
