Jersey Boys sing their way into Singapore

With the onslaught of trashy reality TV shows of late, you’d almost be forgiven for thinking that Jersey Boys was a musical centered around characters like Pauly D and The Situation. But sixties music enthusiasts would be familiar with the original Jersey Boys — Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, which is what this multi award-winning show is really about.

Even if the quartet doesn’t ring a bell, there is no excuse to be unfamiliar with their songs. Hits like Sherry, Can’t Take My Eyes of You and My Eyes Adored You have been sung along to over the decades, and now you get to relive the story of how four poverty-stricken kids became one of the greatest successes in pop music history at the newly renamed MasterCard Theatre at Marina Bay Sands.

Be transported back to 1962 as you watch the Jersey Boys perform two upbeat musical numbers in the video below; but be warned: they may cause uncontrollable foot-tapping, involuntary finger-snapping and full-blown dancing.

Catch Jersey Boys at the Marina Bay Sands MasterCard Theatre from now to February 17, 2013. Tickets are priced from $55 and are available at SISTIC. For more information, visit www.jerseyboys.com.sg.
