I believe the article in the blog is discussing the departure of Mr. Bergen, not the entire cast leaving, not the different design departments, not the directors, supervisors, managers, producers, PR, marketing, grips, catering, and whoever else comprises the company. I donâ€™t believe anyone is trying to discredit anyone in the show. People know it takes a village to do just about anything. Paying customers ($60-$330 per ticket, depending on the venue) who have enjoyed & financially supported the show are just voicing their opinion. And by the comment above it appears to discredit the countless loyal paying customers and Mr. Bergen.

I go to see the Jersey Boys each and every month, and have done so since the show started. There are four generation of women that go to see the Four Seasons. We are grieving the loss of Erich. Just knowing he isn’t here in Las Vegas breaks our hearts. We love, respect and support the other cast members. However, it Erich that was the talent through which we were introduced to so many other talents. We attended events at the Liberace and went to the MJ Tribute. We have our tickets for the 2nd, and although the production company doesn’t feel that they need Erich, we may. Erich, “Thank You” for all the wonderful times. You have given wonderful memories to four generations of women to treasure forever. We will continue to follow your career and will always remain your loving and supporting fans.
Sincerely, Bea, Kelly, Kehni & Nana…

Though I am sure by the comments above that Erich Bergen did not leave on his terms, it seems to me that there is a whole cast of wonderful “forces” that bring the show together. I realize this because the show is doing very well, not only here in Vegas but in other cities as well. To make such statements as the ones above, discredits all the hard work that so many people do to make the show such a hit. I am positive that Erich and Deven have not been in every show that has been done over the years. It is time to move on and say goodbye, farewell to those no longer with the show and support those that work hard to make the show fabulous. This is part of showbiz, is it not.

This is so wrong. Erich has been one of the two reasons that I have bothered going back and back to see the VEGAS show. Erich and Deven May are the two driving forces. I have been many times and we were so pleased that they finally got it right by bringing Deven back so all was right. Amazingly bad judgement by the shows producers. I don’t know the whole story but this is not right.
