This biographical jukebox musical chronicles the rise of four blue-collar kids from Newark who became international superstars, selling over 175 million records worldwide. Winner of four Tony Awards including Best Musical, Jersey Boys features over two dozen classic hits including "Sherry," "Big Girls Don't Cry," "Can't Take My Eyes Off You," and "December, 1963 (Oh, What a Night)."
