Learn the Story Behind the Story of Jersey Boys-May 20th

 
 

As an additional effort to bring the arts into the community, Bank of America will be hosting a series of four Stage Side Chats with cast members from Jersey Boys. Audience members at Tuesday night performances May 20 through June 10 will be invited to a brief question and answer session following that evening's performance with the actors who bring this show to life eight times a week. Chicago's own Jersey Boys performs at the Bank of America Theatre (18 W. Monroe) in an open run.
 
Directed by two-time Tony® Award-winner Des McAnuff, Jersey Boys won both the 2006 Tony® Award for Best Musical and the 2007 Grammy Award® for Best Musical Recording, and continues to break box office records on Broadway and in Chicago. Jersey Boys is written by Academy Award®-winner Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice, with music by Bob Gaudio, lyrics by Bob Crewe and choreography by Sergio Trujillo.

Jersey Boys is the story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons: Frankie Valli, Bob Gaudio, Tommy DeVito and Nick Massi. This is the story of how a group of blue-collar boys from the wrong side of the tracks 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.

The performance schedule is as follows:  Tuesdays at 7:30 p.m.; Wednesdays at 2:00 p.m. & 7:30 p.m.; Thursdays at 7:30 p.m.; Fridays at 8 p.m.; Saturdays at 2 p.m. & 8 p.m.; and Sundays at 2 p.m.
