Posted on: 26 Dec 2022

What better way to kick off a brand-new year of top-quality theatre than a trip to see the internationally acclaimed stage sensation Jersey Boys when it opens at Bristol Hippodrome next weekend?

 

The first Bristol Hippodrome musical of 2023, Jersey Boys will run from Tuesday 10 until Saturday 21 January.

 

Telling the story of celebrated 60s group Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, this smash-hit Broadway sensation is one of the most loved musicals in the world and has been seen by over 27 million theatregoers, winning 65 massive theatre awards along the way.

A jukebox musical for the whole family, Jersey Boys is based around the music of 1960s rock’n’roll group The Four Seasons – fronted by international superstar Frankie Valli. 

 

Tommy DeVito, Bob Gaudio, Nick Massi and Frankie Valli were just four ordinary guys from Jersey until they sang their very first note. As The Four Seasons, they quickly developed an original sound thanks to their blend of Italian American doo-wop and rhythm and blues as well as, of course, Valli’s powerful falsetto.

 

Taking to the stage in 2004, Jersey Boys takes on a documentary approach to their story. The band’s musical output is split into four ‘Seasons’, with each of the band members giving their own account of a tumultuous musical career.

 

Legendary hits including ‘Big Girls Don’t Cry’, ‘December, 1963 (Oh What a Night)’ and ‘Sherry’ all feature in this much-loved musical. Over the years, Jersey Boys has won high-profile awards such as the Tony Award for Best Musical, the Grammy Award for Best Musical Show Album and the Laurence Olivier Award for Best New Musical.

 

Jersey Boys is appearing in Bristol next week as part of a UK tour that began back in November. The production will then go on to run at Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Sheffield, Wolverhampton, Northampton, Southend, Cardiff and Leicester. More information can be found here.
