JERSEY BOYS Opens at QPAC, July 15

This weekend the world-wide smash hit production of JERSEY BOYS – The Story of Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons officially opens at the Queensland Performing Arts Centre (QPAC) on Sunday 15 July 2012.

JERSEY BOYS – The Story of Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons is the story of how four blue collar boys from the wrong side of the tracks became one of the biggest American pop sensations of all time. Frankie Valli, Bob Gaudio, Tommy DeVito and Nick Massi joined forces to become The Four Seasons, writing their own hits and developing their unique sound to sell over 175 million records before they were 30!

JERSEY BOYS features 20 Four Seasons hit songs including "Sherry", "Big Girls Don't Cry", "Rag Doll", "Oh What a Night" and "Can't Take My Eyes Off You".

Written by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice, with music by Bob Gaudio, lyrics by Bob Crewe, choreography by Sergio Trujillo and directed by two-time Tony Award winner Des McAnuff, JERSEY BOYS – The Story of Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons won four 2006 Tony Awards® including Best Musical and the Olivier Award for Best New Musical in 2009.

JERSEY BOYS is the 19th longest running Broadway show, recently passing Avenue Q, The Producers, Hairspray, My Fair Lady and Oklahoma.

In Australia, JERSEY BOYS has won two Helpmann Awards for Best Musical and Best Music Direction of a Musical as well as seven Victorian Green Room Awards. The JERSEY BOYS Original Cast Recording also received a 2006 Grammy Award® for Best Musical Show Album.

JERSEY BOYS will feature the performances of Dion Bilios as Frankie Valli, Declan Egan as Bob Gaudio, Anthony Harkin as Tommy DeVito, and Glaston Toft as Nick Massi – The Four Seasons.
