Grab Your Seats: Jersey Boys’ Hit Songs and Must-Hear Story ‘Works its Way Back’ to Washington

Jersey Boys makes its much anticipated return to National Theatre this holiday season. The Tony award-winning hit musical has “Work[ed] its Way Back” to Washington, still turning audiences into jukebox song singing fanatics… and the tale between those tunes commands their attention, too.

Jersey Boys, a docu-musical about the life and times – and eventual break-up – of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, uses the group’s own hits (but only 33 of them!) to explain their rise, and demise.

You “Can’t Take [your] Eyes Off” of the small cast, most playing multiple parts with quick changes.

Separated into four seasons, each narrated by a different band member in his own perspective, the audience is “Beggin‘” to learn more about this band which went head to head with the Beatles, sold 175 million records worldwide (all before they hit the age of 30) and got out of Jersey, even if they just couldn’t get the Jersey out.

“Oh! What a Night!”  Jersey Boys plays at National Theatre through January 5th.

Contains authentic, profane Jersey language. Recommended for ages 12 and up. Run time: Approximately 2 hours, 40 minutes, including one intermission
