JERSEY BOYS has now surpassed some of the long-running and critically-acclaimed shows on the Great White Way, including La Cage aux Folles, Aida, and South Pacific and will soon be closing in on hits such as Pippin and Smokey Joe’s Cafe.

  2. When High Schools in the 1960s were doing student productions of “My Fair Lady”, “The Sound Of Music”, “South Pacific”, and “The Music Man”, and when those student performers went home and turned on their radios and record players and played Four Seasons records, who would have believed that those songs would become part of a Musical some 40 years later that would surpass and come close to matching the runs of those classic shows?
