JERSEY BOYS Comes to Denver, Now thru 8/11

JERSEY BOYS made its sell-out premiere in Denver in 2008. The Tony, Grammy and Olivier Award-winning hit musical JERSEY BOYS, the story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, is "working its way back" to the Buell Theatre tonight, July 17-August 11.

JERSEY BOYS is the winner of the 2006 Best Musical Tony Award, the 2006 Grammy Award for Best Musical Show Album, the 2009 Olivier Award for Best New Musical, and the 2010 Helpmann Award for Best Musical (Australia).

Directed by two-time Tony Award-winner Des McAnuff, 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.

JERSEY BOYS opened at the August Wilson Theatre on Broadway to critical acclaim on November 6, 2005. The JERSEY BOYS first national tour opened to rave reviews in San Francisco on December 1, 2006, played a record-breaking run in Los Angeles and is still breaking house records in cities across North America. There are six Current Productions of JERSEY BOYS worldwide: New York; London; Las Vegas; Auckland, New Zealand (begins April 2012); and two US national tours.

The JERSEY BOYS design and production team comprises: Klara Zieglerova (scenic design); Jess Goldstein (costume design); Howell Binkley (winner of the 2006 Tony Award® for his lighting design of JERSEY BOYS); Steve Canyon Kennedy (sound design); Michael Clark (projections design); Charles LaPointe (wig and hair design); Steve Orich (orchestrations) and Ron Melrose (music direction, vocal arrangements & incidental music).
