About The Jersey Boys

The band consisted of four boys whose names are almost iconic by now. They are Frankie Valli and Nick Massi from Newark, Tommy DeVito from Belleville and Bob Gaudio from Bronx. These four boys from the wrong side of the fence are almost inspirational for many. They not only crossed the barrier but made it big in the arena too. Their music made them one of the biggest pop sensations in American musical history. The Four Seasons were a musical factory by themselves, churning out hits after mega hits consistently. They wrote and recorded their own songs.

Their sound was their own invention and the music stood out. They sold a record breaking 178 million records. Whats more, they were one among the all time greats even before they were thirty.
A genre by themselves, Jersey Boys were called as jukesicals. Jukesicals is a clever interweaving of biography and songs. The sound is fresh and original. There are die hard fans of the band out there and every show is a sell out. Most of the audience go inside the show knowing every song that was ever recorded by the band. The show is a memory arousing drama about those wild youth times.

The star cast of the play is talented and deserving of all the accolades tat they are getting now from all quarters, be it the critics or the audience. Christian Hoff stars as Tommy DeVito. Before Jersey Boys, he was known for his work in another musical 'The Who's Tommy.' Daniel Reichard is Bob Gaudio. Jersey Boys is his Broadway debut. He was previously seen in off-Broadway's Forbidden Broadway and The Thing About Men. J. Robert Spencer is Nick Massi. It is his first appearance on the broadway too. Lastly, John Lloyd Young plays Frankie Valli. He is yet another debutant on the Broadway.

The show is based on the book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice. Bob Gaudio is the man behind the music that stands up to the expectations from the play. The lyrics are by Bob Crewe. Des McAnuff is the director whose previous credits include 'The Who's Tommy.'

The performances and staging are good and Howell Binkley needs to be thanked for the atmospheric lighting. Michael Clark is responsible for those original projections. But not to be ignored are the non-singing performers as Mark Lotitio. He expertly handles several roles.

Jersey Boys received all-around positive reviews on the first night itself. The show made more than $2 million in single tickets since the opening night. So if you wish to be at the show, please get the tickets from an online ticket vendor.
