JERSEY BOYS is the story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons - Frankie Valli, Bob Gaudio, Nick Massi and Tommy DeVito - and how this group of blue-collar boys from the wrong side of the tracks became one of the biggest American and International pop music sensations of all time.

Their songs include ‘Sherry', ‘Walk Like A Man', ‘December, 1963 (Oh What a Night)', ‘Big Girls Don't Cry', ‘My Eyes Adored You', ‘Let's Hang On (To What We've Got)', ‘Bye Bye Baby', ‘Can't Take My Eyes Off You', ‘Working My Way Back to You', ‘Fallen Angel', ‘Rag Doll' and ‘Who Loves You'.
