Jersey Boys Uk Tour (Bradford Alhambra)

 Without sounding cliche, Oh what a night it was!

You have probably heard a Frankie Valli and The Four season song without even realising. Alot of there songs shaped there era and the next ones and also created a musical and movie based on their story.
I had seen the movie before the musical and loved that but heard the musical was far better and they were not wrong. 
Jukebox musicals can be a bit like marmite. Not every ones cup of tea but this is honestly one of the good ones! There is enough dialogue to song ratio and the songs actually link in with the story so they don't cheat and just add loads of songs in, like some juke box musicals do.
The cast were amazing all previously done the roles either on tour west end and with a great back catalogue of musical credits the songs were put into great hands to be sung well.
The songs! From Beggin' to Oh what a night to My eyes adored you each broke your heart, made you sing along or got those toes tapping. A total audience standing ovation and finale dance ended the show on a high, i would have liked a quick medley at the end but they didn't but still you came out singing the songs all the way home

4/5 🌟🌟🌟🌟star rating
