This story really shows that the music industry can be full of potholes and ditches because of how difficult it can be, especially when a group is involved. Christopher, Deven, Michael, Erich and the cast totally made it seem like the Curran Theatre that evening was time warped back to the 60′s.

The extended applause after each single or group song really showed how professional the cast is and that they really are the best in showing us how the Four Seasons and Frankie Valli lived their lives. I cried during “Fallen Angel” and “My Eyes Adored You”, I laughed during the scenes featuring Joe Pesci’s character and was happy they managed to stay together through turbulent times.

I salute the National Touring and Broadway cast of Jersey Boys! They really do an excellent job, day in and day out, because it shows due to the numerous house records in each town being broken and how it touches the audience. I hope to watch them in other cities to come (Vegas, Baby!) , culminating in hopefully watching the actual Broadway cast when a return trip to NY is due. Thanks again, Jersey Boys & Cast!

I have also been more than ten times; Whatever the number, I know I always add ‘so far’.

And the quote-’all they did was sing, act, and dance their asses off.’ ‘…and yet they have motivated me to do things I have never done before, and take chances.’ Amazing how that works, Brian…and on both coasts!

Even the comment about the show becoming his favorite after the third time. Sure its great the first time, but you discover if you keep going that there is so much, much more available in these amazing performances.

I appreciate Jessica’s comment- ‘We try to get the audience going and make their experience as performers just as good as our experience as patrons.’
If I am getting back so much more than the price of my ticket, I owe the performers more than my part of the paycheck they get for giving their all. There is a relationship between audience and performers here that I have never experienced in any other show. Although the writing gets a lot of credit for that; I think the actors/ actresses (in both shows) get the bulk!

Great interview. Such enthusiasm. (Talk about taking chances, I bought two sets of tickets to see the show in LA even though I currently have no plans to head west. Just gotta make it happen, right?!)
