What is Jersey Boys The Musical about?

They were just four guys from New Jersey who sang their hearts out. They were the Jersey Boys. Go behind the music and discover the inside story of vocalist Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons in this beloved, Olivier and Tony Award-winning musical now considered a modern, new stage classic.

From the moment they sang their very first note, it was clear the quartet had a sound unlike anyone had ever heard before. They went on to dominate the airwaves for a long time and were all you would ever hear when you turned on the radio.

But while they seemed to be in perfect harmony onstage, their life offstage was a whole different story — one that has made them famous all over again! From the city streets of the Garden State to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, this is a jukebox musical that is just too good to be true.

What songs are in Jersey Boys The Musical?

The show features some of the Four Seasons greatest hits, including "Beggin’", "Big Girls Don’t Cry", "Bye Bye Baby", "Can’t Take My Eyes Off You", "December, 1963 (Oh What a Night)", "Fallen Angel", "Let’s Hang On (To What We’ve Got)", "My Eyes Adored You", "Rag Doll", "Sherry", "Walk Like A Man", "Who Loves You", and "Working My Way Back to You".

What awards has Jersey Boys The Musical won?

Jersey Boys ranks high up there in terms of the number of awards it has picked up over the years. The original Broadway production raked in four Tony Awards out of 8 nominations, including Best Musical, Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Musical (John Lloyd Young), Best Performance by a Featured Actor in a Musical (Christian Hoff), and Best Lighting Design of a Musical. It also took home the 2007 Grammy Award for Best Musical Show Album as well as two 2016 Drama Desk Awards for Outstanding Actor in a Musical and Outstanding Sound Design.

The original London production of Jersey Boys won the 2009 Laurence Olivier Award for Best New Musical and was also nominated for four other Oliviers, including Best Actor in a Musical, Best Theatre Choreographer, Best Director, and Best Sound Design. The show has also won dozens of other major theatre awards and boasts having been seen by over 27 million people from all over the world.

Jersey Boys production history

The musical first opened on Broadway at New York's August Wilson Theatre on 4 October 2005, eventually closing in January 2017 after 4,642 performances. It transferred to London's West End in February 2008 and ran at the Prince Edward Theatre until the production moved to the Piccadilly in 2014 before closing on 26 March 2017.
