Tuesday is opening night as Omaha Performing Arts presents the Tony®, Grammy® and Olivier Award-winning hit musical Jersey Boys, the story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons.

Jersey Boys follows the story of Frankie Valli, Bob Gaudio, Tommy DeVito and Nick Massi rise to fame. This is the true story of how a group of blue-collar boys from the wrong side of the tracks became one of the biggest American pop music sensations of all time. They wrote their own songs, invented their own sounds and sold 175 million records worldwide - all before they were thirty. The show features all their hits including “Sherry,” “Big Girls Don’t Cry,” “Oh What A Night,” “Walk Like A Man,” “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” and “Working My Way Back To You.”

The musical will make its much-anticipated return to Omaha, playing the Orpheum Theater March 7-12, 2017. Tickets, starting at $35, are available at TicketOmaha.com.
