Broadway's gritty smash hit musical, 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 officially opened on Broadway to critical acclaim in November 2005. Since opening, JERSEY BOYS has been New York's hottest ticket, sold out every night, and continues to break box office records on Broadway and throughout the world.

JERSEY BOYS - The Story of Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons opened in Melbourne on 4 July 2009 and is now playing in Melbourne, Broadway, London, Toronto, Las Vegas and a US National Tour. JERSEY BOYS played in San Francisco for 48 weeks and recently closed in Chicago after two years, where they played to more than 1.2 million people. In Melbourne to date, JERSEY BOYS has broken the box office record of the Princess Theatre on three occasions making it the highest weekly gross ever achieved.
