rev:text	I've always seen the billboards and advertisements in New York City and always heard rave reviews about the show. It's unique having this production in Vegas as it's one of the few true "broadway-esque" shows on the strip. Of course in NYC, the culture and essence is quite different in entertainment. The different skill sets such as acting and singing take a precedence over acrobats and technological productions... ahem Vegas. City comparisons aside, I really did enjoy the change of pace that a true broadway musical brought to Vegas. It brings people back to earth using basic entertainment from when we can remember. Even the set designs and use of props also provided made me feel nostalgic of how effective minimalism can be in stage shows. Pre-show, my friend and I stood in line for a few drinks and popcorn. I believe I had this fruit punch tasting drink and it was pretty great for me since it didn't taste full of alcohol, yet had me slightly buzzed. Tasty for myself though. Popcorn was a pretty small batch but maybe for the better. That alone was around $25.00 before tip. Inside the theater and yes, immediately from the get go you'll notice that indeed there isn't a "bad seat" in the venue. Like everyone said, even being on the balcony won't be too far from the stage. I did score front mezzanine and I'm not complaining... great seats! LOL The show itself does move in a fast paced with quick dialogue that may fly over a few people's head. For myself I wasn't "hooked" to the show from the get go and it took a little time for me to get engaged. The acting was pretty good but no true standout performances. The singing is where it really shines... the lead character for Franki Valli was just phenomenal. Each time he hits that falsetto note chills literally run through my bones. Kind of makes me wonder why didn't the actor create his own lane in singing... who knows. The show runs for about 2 hours and does have a quick intermission. Really around the halfway mark is where the audience begins to invest their time into the story as the juicy details and turns begins to direct the music that accompanies the story. The comedy material wasn't gut busting laughter but I enjoyed how they were able to trickle them across the 2 hours. Also, do keep in mind when bringing kids.. there is a bunch of F bombs in the show! All in all, great show and I'm glad that Vegas does have broadway style musical to accompany all of the bizarro acts of sin city. Somewhere I feel like I would appreciate Jersey Boys to it's fullest in NYC because I'm spoiled with modern day entertainment that Vegas provides.. it's easy to lose interest in elongated storylines (which JB does have) however Jersey Boys is loaded with a pretty good cast, fantastic lead singer, and an earthly production to hold up for all 2 hours.
