I'm in LOVE with this show. I can't wait to go back. Any date for the release of a Cast recording yet?

The cast album is coming out November 1. It's produced by one of the original Four Seasons, Bob Gaudio.

And a week later....

Almost 64% is a good, steady climb. This show may make it. It has good buzz from what I've been able to read.

My husband , Mario, and I went to see JERSEY BOYS last night Friday, Oct 21.
From the moment you appeared on stage to the moment you exited with the rest
of the cast, it was non-stop pure entertainment. We both have been fans of
Frankie Valli for decades and were so thrilled when we met Marshall Brickman and
Rick Elice back in March, 2005 at a Frankie Valli concert in Lehman College
in the Bronx, they happened to be sitting right in front of us in the audience
and Frankie introduced them while he was on stage. We spoke to them for
quite a time after the show and Marshall had the JERSEY BOYS hat from the show in
LaHoya show and gave it to my husband
He told us that JERSEY BOYS would be opening this fall (2005 ) in New
York.....We'll we were both so excited and as soon as tickets went on sale we
immediately bought two tickets....and last night we finally saw the show.

OH WHAT A NIGHT ----is the best way to describe what a terrific electrified
performance this ensemble puts on.

Seeing the light in your eyes from the thunderous applause especially after
you sang "SHERRY" (which also happens to be my name) it brought chills up and
down my spine.....You are so refreshing , charming, energetic and your charisma
is absolutely
top-notch. The audience just loved every minute of this show which has an
abundant of talent performing.

We hope to see the show again in the not too distant future and wish you and
the rest of the cast much continued success and may it enjoy a long deserved
run on Broadway.

A lot depends on the marketing. I think the producers behind "Jersey Boys" have learned a lesson from the "All Shook Up" fiasco and will promote the show heavily from the get-go.

While Brantley hates jukebox shows, other critics will go in with an open mind and will probably give the show decent reviews.


I'd put the show's chances of success at 75%.
