Jersey Boys. Tickets to the Golden Age of Pop
Jersey Boys tickets are one of the biggest selling theater tickets in the world today. Whether you want Jersey Boys London tickets, Jersey Boys San Francisco, or Jersey Boys Broadway tickets, you will notice that they are in high demand, as everyone wants to see this monumental account of how four ordinary Jersey guys were recognized for their massive musical talent.
Jersey Boys is more than a musical; it is a celebration of demography, giftedness and timeliness. These things all blend in Jersey Boys to create a solid sense that one is in fact living in a special place and time, an era and a location whose inhabitants came to represent something. That something was the northeastern US ghetto experience coupled to a hard-edged reality that lives on in films, in music, and in books to this very day. Jersey Boys covers some very adult themes, such as organized crime, drugs and other kinds of things artists are plagued by. The distinctly New York atmosphere of the production has itself guaranteed sales of tons of Jersey Boys tickets - the metropolitan New York area must be populated by hundreds of thousands if not millions of people for whom the 1950s and early 60s still resonates strongly. Especially the music. Music is always there for us when the chips are down and in Jersey Boys this fact takes on a life of its own.
The classic tunes of Jersey Boys were arranged and written by ex-Four Season Bob Gaudio and Bob Crewe. Jersey Boys will truly make you feel you witnessed, or even relived, history; a common remark is that, until the final curtain fell, audience members were completely lost in the non-formulaic, organic spontaneity of the scene, having literally forgotten about their personal lives, the fact they were in a theater, or even the decade they were living in! This is the secret to how Jersey Boys tickets have sold in such huge numbers. It's not a sweetness and light type story, that's for sure. Jersey Boys is a gritty but artistic voyage through the Italian ghettos, the ones mythologized in gangster movies and books about the Mafia. Among those rough characters were singers, musicians, artists, and it is amazing to see how they emerged from the teeming jungles of the New York area in a time when few chances fell to anyone whose ancestry or connections lay on the wrong side of the tracks.
Everyone knows the sound of the Four Seasons, and a lot of people are aware that the group literally invented that sound themselves. What even fewer know is the conditions under which the Four Seasons gestated, the challenges and violence that was inherent in being "from the neighborhood" back in the 1950s. With a scintillating backdrop featuring drug addiction, loan-sharking, prison and casual sex, the story weaves itself together and delivers the goods, with aplomb and panache. In particular the singing talents of actor John Lloyd Young, who plays Frankie Valli adds to the story and enhances it, brings it up to a new level, and makes the audience truly believe they have been privy to a tale worth learning about.

For those interested in activities in a similar New York metro community on the other side of Manhattan, check out A View From the Bridge tickets, a tale of Italian Americans living in the shadow of the Brooklyn Bridge in a blue collar community where obsession and honor can sometimes overlap. A View From the Bridge is a dramatic exploration of the lives of people caught in ethnic ties and out-of-control circumstances along the Brooklyn waterfront. If you're a connoisseur of the Italian-American experience and the way that experience fits into the complex jigsaw that is the Big Apple, A View From the Bridge tickets are for you. The play is an ideal companion to Jersey Boys - the two bookends either side of Manhattan, if you will!
