Jersey Boys set for Los Angeles

The L.A. Times says the Ahmanson Theater in Los Angeles announced on Wednesday that "Jersey Boys" will be there starting in May 2007, taking the place of the temporarily on-hold Berry Gordy musical, "Ain't No Mountain High Enough." I can hardly wait. I know that the Ahmanson's best seats are taken up by subscription, so I am going to look into seeing how much this will now be. They have a good lineup this year. "Curtains" is on now, then "Doubt" with Cherry Jones, "Light in the Piazza," "Edward Scisscorhands" (a new ballet by Matthew Bourne), "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" with Kathleen Turner and Bill Irwin, "12 Angry Men" with Richard Thomas and George Wendt (I can't quite see this casting), and then "Jersey Boys"

No sitdowns!

Wicked will be at the Pantages, so the Ahmanson will have to host all the tours. At the most, it can extend to like September.

Same here Popular. I'm sure it will be hitting all the major cities. Here's hoping it at least comes to Atlanta!

It opens here in San Francisco in November. Got my tix already!

"Great news! I want to see what all the fuss is about."

Popular, it's fantabulous. You'll have a great time!

"Saw it in La Jolla prior to B'way and loved it...can't wait to see what changes they made. Anyone know?"

I saw it in La Jolla and then on B'way back in 10/05. From what I recall, the changes were very few and I certainly can't remember them now. I doubt you would notice any changes if it has been that long since you've seen it (if you do notice changes, you certainly have a better memory than I...).

im also hoping for it to come to Atlanta
but my dad's business partner is dying to see the show, and he goes to LA a lot, so maybe he could catch it there!
