The musical is structured as four “seasons”, each narrated by a different member of the band who gives his own perspective on its history and music, and throughout we hear their famous songs that had everyone dancing, ‘Big Girls Don’t Cry’, ‘Sherry’, ‘December 1963 (Oh, What A Night)’, Can’t Take my Eyes Off You’ and ‘Walk Like A Man’ to name a few! I throrougly enjoyed this musical as although I knew some of the songs, being that my Grandad loved the Four Seasons, there were some that I didn’t know were his, and not knowing the story behind them such as their involvement with the Mob, Frankie’s Daughter, and Tommy’s gambling predicament it opened me up to want to learn more about them. http://www.rosereview.co.uk/?p=796Sat in Royal Circle C26Couldn't flaunt this seat for tonight's performance, the leg room is brilliant, the chairs are roomy and comfy! our view even with being slightly to the left side didn't distrupt our view we could see everything with no need of turning of heads and leaning forward recommend these seats!

JERSEY BOYS SEATING PLAN
Some moments of action happen on a high piece of set which is best viewed from the centre of the Stalls or the middle of the Dress Circle. Those who want to feel up close and personal with the band on stage may enjoy sitting in the first few rows of the Stalls.
STORY
Jersey Boys is more than just a jukebox musical; it is the Tony and Laurence Olivier Award winning production that tells the tale of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons as if from the perspective of the band members themselves.
Following a hugely successful opening on Broadway, Jersey Boys arrived on the West End in 2008 and was a firm audience favourite until it closed in April 2017.
The show tells the tale of one of the world's most successful pop bands throughout their many stages of success and hardship. At the beginning, the "Jersey boys" are four down on their luck lads who are in and out of prison and from here, the audience watch how these men manage to turn their luck around in spite of their inner demons.
Jersey Boys was developed under the leadership of original Four Seasons band member, Bob Guadio, who hired writers Rick Elice and Marshall Brickman to pen the book. Directed by Des McAnuff, Jersey Boys promises to be very much a true to life portrayal of life in the band.
You do not need to be a Four Seasons fan to enjoy the fantastic music in the show, which includes the vast majority of the quartet's hit songs such as "Sherry," "December 1963 (Oh What a Night!)" "Big Girls Don't Cry," "Can't Take My Eyes off You," and "Bye, Bye, Baby, Goodbye."
Jam packed with hit tunes, an eye catching set and expert choreography, Jersey Boys made for one of the most fun nights out in London.
