"Jersey Boys is the story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons: Frankie Valli, Bob Gaudio, Tommy DeVito and Nick Massi, about a group of blue-collar boys from the wrong side of the tracks who became one of the biggest American pop music sensations of all time. They wrote their own songs, invented their own sounds and sold 175 million records worldwide - all before they were thirty," explain press materials.

Jersey Boys is currently playing to sold-out houses on Broadway at the August Wilson Theatre and in San Francisco at the Curran Theatre.  Jersey Boys just completed a sold out, record-breaking engagement at the Ahmanson Theatre in Los Angeles on August 30 and will begin performances in Chicago at the LaSalle Bank Theatre on October 5.  Productions have been announced for Las Vegas, London, Toronto and a US National Tour will visit a host of cities across the country.

Jersey Boys, winner of four 2006 Tony Awards® including Best Musical, is written by Marshall Brickman & Rick Elice, with music by Bob Gaudio, lyrics by Bob Crewe, and is directed by two-time Tony Award-winner Des McAnuff and choreographed by Sergio Trujillo. The Grammy Award-winning cast recording is available on Rhino Records. For more information visit www.JerseyBoysInfo.com
