Jersey Boys, winner of four 2006 Tony Awards(r) including Best Musical, has set a new house record at the August Wilson Theatre, grossing $1,056,570.76 for the week ending July 2, 2006.

"This much-acclaimed juke-box musical tells the story of Frankie Valli (Tony-winner John Lloyd Young), Bob Gaudio (Daniel Reichard), Tommy DeVito (Christian Hoff) and Nick Massi (J. Robert Spencer), 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, The Four Seasons. They wrote their own songs, invented their own sounds and sold 175 million records worldwide - all before they were thirty," state press notes on the show, which won the Tony Award for Best Musical, among others.

Jersey Boys opened at the August Wilson Theatre on November 6. The national tour of Jersey Boys will begin this fall in San Francisco.

Jersey Boys is written by Marshall Brickman & Rick Elice, with music by Bob Gaudio, lyrics by Bob Crewe, and directed by two-time Tony Award-winner Des McAnuff.

A cast recording is available now on Rhino Records
