Jersey Boys extends booking period

Jersey Boys has extended its booking period at the Piccadilly Theatre until 25th October 2014. The last performance at the Prince Edward Theatre will be on Sunday 9th March 2014. The musical will then re-open at the Piccadilly Theatre on Friday 14th March. Miss Saigon will replace Jersey Boys at the Prince Edward Theatre, opening in May 2014.

Michael David, on behalf of the producers, said, “We are thrilled to be celebrating our 6th birthday in London very soon in our new home at the Piccadilly Theatre. London theatergoers have warmly supported Jersey Boys since 2008, a tenure any show could only hope for. We feel, therefore, most privileged to now be able to continue our residence in London on Denman Street. The Piccadilly will fit Jersey Boys like a glove and audiences will hopefully enjoy it there accordingly.”

Jersey Boys opened in London in March 2008 and has now been seen by over 17.5 million people worldwide. Jersey Boys is the true story of Frankie Valli the Four Seasons and their rise to stardom from the wrong side of the tracks. These four boys from New Jersey became one of the most successful bands in pop history, were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and sold 100 million records worldwide, all before they turned 30. 

Jersey Boys has won 54 major awards worldwide, including the Olivier Award for Best New Musical. The show originally opened on Broadway in 2006, receiving the Tony Award for Best Musical. As well as still running on Broadway and in the West End, Jersey Boys can be seen in Las Vegas, across the United States on its US National Tour, and in Perth, Australia, and will open soon in Cape Town, South Africa and the Netherlands.
