Character descriptions/breakdown:
From the mean streets of Jersey to American Bandstand, this is the thrilling story of how a group of blue-collar boys from the wrong side of the tracks became the biggest doo-wop sensation of all time: The Four Seasons. Using their legendary music, two-time Tony Award winner Des McAnuff brings to life the exciting early days of rock-and-roll, and the price of fame for four guys who had nothing – and everything – to lose. Produced by Dodger Theatricals and directed by Des McAnuff, with a book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice, and music by Bob Gaudio and lyrics by Bob Crewe, JERSEY BOYS was originally produced at the La Jolla Playhouse.
