Jersey Boys at Akron Opera House

Jersey Boys takes you behind the music of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, a legendary group that rose from blue-collar New Jersey boys to become international stars. The musical isn't a straight biography, but rather an interwoven narrative told from the perspectives of the band's four members: Frankie Valli, the lead singer with the iconic falsetto, Bob Gaudio, the songwriter, Tommy DeVito, the charismatic but volatile guitarist, and Nick Massi, the dependable bass player. Through their often-conflicting viewpoints, the story unfolds, chronicling their struggles, triumphs, and eventual break-up.

Jersey Boys isn't just about the drama; it's a full-fledged musical celebration. Packed with the group's greatest hits, including "Sherry," "Big Girls Don't Cry," "Can't Take My Eyes Off You," "Oh What a Night," and "Walk Like a Man," the show will have you tapping your feet and singing along. Jersey Boys is a winner in every sense of the word. It won four Tony Awards, including Best Musical, and has captivated audiences worldwide. So, if you're looking for a night of electrifying music, fascinating behind-the-scenes drama, and the unforgettable story of The Four Seasons, Jersey Boys is a must-see.
