My parents brought me and my brother tickets to Jersey Boys. Is it appropriate for my ten year old brother? Will he be bored out of his mind? He has seen a lot of shows he his favorite is Seussical.

He won't be bored, but how are your parents regarding strong language and a scene with prostitutes?

Is Jersey Boys Good for Kids?
Although Jersey Boys snaps along at a pace easy for younger audiences to follow, it is not really a show for young children: they won’t get the heavy nostalgia factor, and parents may find themselves cringing at sexual innuendo (“Oh, What a Night!” indeed), infidelity, the (offstage) death of a child, enough swearing to make a truck driver on the Jersey Turnpike blush and other behavior you might expect from four tough guys touring from sold-out concert to sold-out concert.
