"Jersey Boys is a rewarding and electrifying musical drama that balances the exhilarating highs of The Four Seasons' meteoric rise to fame with the darker, more emotional moments that depict their personal and professional struggles. With powerhouse performances, excellent renditions of the group's iconic songs, and direction that is sleek and fast-paced, Phoenix Theatre Company is presenting a fantastic production of this award-winning musical."   - Gil Benbrook, TalkinBroadway.com (click here to read the complete review)

"the richly entertaining and invigorating The Phoenix Theatre Company staging couldn’t be better.  It equals the well-received Broadway version.  The local production is expertly cast and glides along with upscale energy as it encapsulates the members lives and how personal issues affected their professional existence."    -Chris Curcio, Curtain Up Phoenix (click here to read the complete review)
