NEWSFLASH from Official London Theatre Guide: Hit Four Seasons’ musical Jersey Boys was crowned the 95.8 Capital FM Best West End Show at last night’s Visit London People’s Choice Awards.
The award, which was voted for by Londoners and London tourists, was collected by Ryan Molloy, who plays Frankie Valli in Jersey Boys, and the show’s Executive Producer Julian Stoneman.
Telling the autobiographical tale of American pop group Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, Jersey Boys opened at the Prince Edward theatre in March 2008.
Congratulations to Jersey Boys London on this exciting award!
Excellent news!! Let this be the start of more recognition to come.

Agreed, Charly. And none of this could have happened without…you. Ha ha ha.

Whoo Hooo! No surprise to me! I am so glad I got to see the show and meet the cast. Wish I could give each of them a big hug.

Thanks to Charly, too, I had the great honor of seeing the London cast two weeks ago and meeting all the guys (except Philip, who saw me turn away for a second and took the opportunity to make a clean getaway). I am so happy for them.
This award was so well-deserved, but Stubbleyou, I agree that if 95.8 Capital FM didn’t acknowledge the OLC, they’d never hear the end of it from Charly!! “Don’t get her started!”

FABULOUS news, and so well deserved!!! It was a thrill to see this marvelous cast in July, and hope to get back there for a repeat performance.
