They had a look, an attitude, and a sound like no other. Sure, they were born in Jersey. But they were made in America. Jersey Boys is the international musical phenomenon that takes you behind the scenes - and behind the music - of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons. No wonder that for over 15 years, New York's favorite musical is the one about the boys from Jersey.
