The original Tony-winning musical about Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons returns for its 20th Anniversary Tour at The Regent Theatre.
Jersey Boys opens at The Regent Theatre in Hanley on Friday 30 October, with the Stoke-on-Trent run forming part of the show's 20th Anniversary Tour. It's the true-life musical that follows Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons from the streets of New Jersey to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and the original Broadway production picked up an Olivier Award and 65 major awards in total, with more than 30 million people having seen it worldwide.
The whole thing is built around the band's string of hits, and you'll hear plenty of them: 'Sherry', 'Big Girls Don't Cry', 'Walk Like A Man', 'Can't Take My Eyes Off You', 'Beggin'', 'Oh What a Night' and 'Working My Way Back To You'. It's a good cross-section of the songs that made them known, so if you've got a favourite among those, it'll be in there.
There are a few things to keep in mind before you book. The show uses authentic New Jersey vocabulary, and the staging includes flashing strobe lights, loud gunfire, theatrical haze and herbal cigarette smoke. If any of that is a problem for you, it's worth knowing beforehand.
