HistoryDrama
The story

Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice's musical tells the true-life story of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, following Frankie, Bob Gaudio, Tommy DeVito and Nick Massi from their early days in New Jersey to international success. Bob Gaudio and Bob Crewe's songs provide the soundtrack, including Sherry, Big Girls Don't Cry, Walk Like a Man and Can't Take My Eyes Off You.

In the room

A biography told with the pace and energy of a live concert, but with plenty happening behind the music. The four band members take turns telling their version of events as success brings money, relationships, arguments and divided loyalties, with the familiar songs emerging from different moments in their story.

Good fit if you like

true stories from popular music, jukebox musicals with a substantial plot, close vocal harmonies, backstage drama and shows where the songs arrive with more context than a straightforward greatest-hits concert.
