Southern California’s premier theatre company, Musical Theatre West (MTW) is thrilled to open its highly anticipated 2025 season with the smash hit "Jersey Boys,” The Story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons. Running select nights starting February 14th through March 2nd at Carpenter Performing Arts Center, audiences are invited to experience the meteoric rise of Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons- a journey through fame, fortune, and the timeless music that defined a generation. Tickets are on sale NOW, starting at $20 USD and are available by phone at 562-856-1999 or online at musical.org.

Directed by TJ Dawson, Musical Theatre West’s production of Jersey Boys promises to deliver the high-energy, emotionally charged experience that has made this show a global sensation. Jersey Boys features extraordinary performances by Nicholas Alexander as Frankie Valli (MTW Debut), Anthony Carro as Tommy DeVito (MTW Debut), Taubert Nadalini as Bob Gaudio (from Bright Star), and Grant Hodges as Nick Massi (MTW Debut). Together, this talented group brings to life the timeless hits and gripping story of The Four Seasons.

Written by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice and directed by Des McAnuff, Jersey Boys made its world premiere in Southern California 20 years ago. It would go on to play for 12 years on Broadway and garner four Tony Awards, including Best Musical. A documentary musical more than just strung-together numbers, Jersey Boys chronicles in story and Four Seasons songs the emergence, success, and the ups and downs of the ‘60s group that included Frankie Valli, songwriter/keyboardist Bob Gaudio, guitarist Tommy DeVito, and bassist Nick Massi. The show is constructed in four seasons, each narrated by a different member of the quartet, plus a finale.
