JERSEY BOYS Las Vegas Celebrates Its One Year Anniversary On The Strip 5/3

Jersey Boys Las Vegas, the story of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, celebrates its first anniversary on The Las Vegas Strip at the Palazzo Resort-Hotel-Casino Sunday, May 3.

The show has become a staple of entertainment in Las Vegas, being named the number one show of 2008 by the Las Vegas Review-Journal after only six months of performances. In addition, just last month, Jersey Boys was named "Best Show" in Las Vegas by the staff of the Las Vegas Review-Journal, in the newspaper's 28th annual "Best of Las Vegas" poll.

"Las Vegas has proven itself to be a great home for Jersey Boys during the last year," said Jersey Boys producer Michael David. "We are honored that the community has fully embraced the show and we look forward to sharing this remarkable true story with Las Vegas audiences for a long time to come."

In honor of the show's first anniversary, The Cast of Jersey Boys will present a medley of songs in a rare, live performance in support of Race for the Cure and its valued mission Saturday, May 2 at 9:50 a.m. on the 3rd Street Stage of the infamous Fremont Street Experience.

Be a part of the celebration May 3 and take in the unforgettable story of Jersey Boys in the unique, custom-built theatre that houses Jersey Boys Las Vegas. Adorned with special period influences and one-of-a-kind memorabilia from The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Jersey Boys Theatre evokes fond memories of the 1960's era and is currently the only place on the West Coast to see this runaway hit.

Jersey Boys performs at The Palazzo Monday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday at 7 p.m.; Tuesday and Saturday at 6:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. and dark on Wednesday.

Jersey Boys, which opened on Broadway to rave reviews on November 6, 2005, continues to be completely sold out and the hottest ticket on the Great White Way. Jersey Boys received the 2006 Tony Award® for Best Musical and the 2006 Grammy Award for Best Musical Recording; that recording was certified Gold by the RIAA in February, and is regularly found at the top of the Billboard chart of best-selling show CDs.

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. The show features such hits as "Sherry," "Big Girls Don't Cry," "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You," "Oh, What a Night," and many more.

Jersey Boys is written by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice, with music by Bob Gaudio and lyrics by Bob Crewe. The Las Vegas production is staged by the entire original Broadway creative team, led by director Des McAnuff and choreographer Sergio Trujillo. Jersey Boys has scenic design by Klara Zieglerova, costume design by Jess Goldstein, lighting by Howell Binkley, sound by Steve Canyon Kennedy and projections design by Michael Clark. The orchestrations are by Steve Orich and the music direction and vocal arrangements by Ron Melrose.

Jersey Boys is presented in Las Vegas by original Broadway producers Dodger Theatricals, Joseph Grano, Tamara and Kevin Kinsella, Pelican Group together with Base Entertainment (Phantom - The Las Vegas Spectacular); in association with Latitude Link and Rick Steiner.
