It does not matter which cast is being reviewed, all of them work off the same script, perform the same musical and dance numbers and deserve all of the standing ovations and extended applause that we give them. From watching all of the production and performing cast interviews on TV, they all have the same thing to say….. It’s not a “jukebox” musical just based upon the songs, but a totally truthful story of “rags to riches”, with a few speed bumps along the way.

I’ve noticed the August Wilson and Curran Theatre crowds always fidgeting in their seats, waiting for “Who Loves You” to end and anticipating the standing ovation/audience dancealong….. Lots of fun, and it does not matter if it’s an evening sell out or matinee….. Everyone is caught up by the entire dramatic experience during the play and the musical buildup from Ces Soiree La to the “December, 1963″ ending.

Since I’ve watched that SF/LA cast the most, I’d have to say that there is no comparison and all actors/actresses and ensemble members of the “Jersey Boys Family” are true professionals and LA is truly lucky to have them perform there. I hope more and more people have a chance to watch the show when they start covering the rest of the US.
