Last year John Lloyd Young stated that he watched the Tonys at home in his underwear not imagining in a million years that he would be nominated, let alone win in 2006 for his role as Frankie Valli in Jersey Boys. On Sunday, June 11th, his life changed forever.

Spend Tony day (and night) with John Lloyd Young as he gets ready for his big night, walks the red carpet, meets the press after his win and celebrates with friends and family in this special BroadwayWorld.com exclusive video!

In all, the musical won four of the coveted statues, including Best Musical. Christian Hoff took home the award for Best Featured Actor in a Musical as Tommy DeVito and Jersey Boys also scooped up the Best Lighting Design of a Musical award.

Jersey Boys is written by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice, with music by Bob Gaudio, lyrics by Bob Crewe, and is directed by two-time Tony Award-winner Des McAnuff. The show is currently playing at Broadway's August Wilson Theatre (245 West 52nd Street, between Broadway and 8th Avenue). The show "is the story of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons: Frankie Valli (Lloyd Young), Bob Gaudio (Daniel Reichard), Tommy DeVito (Hoff), and Nick Massi (J. Robert Spencer). 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," state press notes.
