JERSEY BOYS – The Story of Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons – smashed the all-time box office gross for opening week.

Following rave reviews from those attending previews and the official opening last week, more than $1.25NZ million in tickets have been snapped up for the nine-week season.

“The opening in Auckland was as successful as anyone could imagine and we are thrilled that New Zealanders have joined the world in their enthusiasm for Jersey Boys,” says producer Rodney Rigby.

All performances of this smash-hit musical playing in Auckland only are now on sale. The season must end Sunday 17 June with no extensions possible.


JERSEY BOYS opened in Melbourne in July 2009 and played for 13 months before transferring to Sydney’s Theatre Royal opening in September 2010. Over 1,000,000 people will have seen the show in Melbourne and Sydney by the end of 2011.

JERSEY BOYS – The Story of Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons is the story of how four blue collar boys from the wrong side of the tracks became one of the biggest American pop sensations of all time. Frankie Valli, Bob Gaudio, Tommy DeVito and Nick Massi joined forces to become The Four Seasons, writing their own hits and developing their unique sound to sell over 175 million records before they were 30!

Broadway Producer, Michael David, from Dodger Theatricals said – “We are thrilled to bring JERSEY BOYS to New Zealand. This story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons has captivated nearly 13 million fans in productions worldwide, and now it is our fondest hope that New Zealand will embrace JERSEY BOYS in the same way. The show is chock full of classic Four Seasons showstopping songs and a story that is all the more riveting because it’s true. With an extraordinary cast, we believe JERSEY BOYS will engage theatergoers and send them dancing out of the Civic Theatre! The remarkable partnership of Frankie Valli and Bob Gaudio indelibly sealed by a handshake agreement over 40 years ago will resonate with New Zealand audiences who will identify with the importance of honour and integrity in this touching tribute to the power of loyalty between friends.”

JERSEY BOYS features 20 Four Seasons hit songs including “Sherry”,
“Big Girls Don’t Cry”, “Rag Doll”, “Oh What a Night” and “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You”.

Producer, Rodney Rigby said “Auckland will join the world’s leading cities to host JERSEY BOYS. Together in partnership with RFA and ATEED we are working to ensure that JERSEY BOYS is a new reason for New Zealanders from across the country to visit this great city.”
