JB National Tour Cast WOWS SF!
December 12th, 2006Richard Connema of TalkinBroadway.com notes that the much anticipated touring production of the Tony winning musical Jersey Boys has come roaring into the Curran Theatre with four amazing singers who knock the socks off the audience and cast a spell over the audience with their precise movements and thematic resonance.
About the actors playing the legendary Four Seasons, Connema notes,
Christopher Kale Jones is fantastic as Frankie Valli, delivering a dynamite portrayal of the famous singer. He has an impressive angelic voice that resonates with the most impact. Deven May (original Bat Boy) as Tommy DeVito dominates the first act with his great Jersey accent that is straight out of “The Sopranos.” He plays the brash, wise-guy type to perfection. Michael Ingersoll as Nick Massi, who defines himself as the “Ringo” of the band, has a direct and straightforward presence. Erich Bergen gives a striking portrayal of Bob Gaudio, the writer of some of The Four Seasons’ greatest hits. Jones nails Valli’s swooning voice with self-confidence while May, Bergen and Ingersoll thrust up the sound with wonderful harmonies.
