  • Decided to see this show because of the 5 star average it has on Yelp, and how it is also highly rated on a few other sites. I was wondering how a show about a doo-wop group could be so highly rated. And while the show was fun, it didn't come close to what I would expect from such a high average. More of a 2.5 star show. The Jersey Boys story is pretty basic: musical group struggles, achieves success, in fighting leads to break up, professional/private life conflicts, they all come back together for a happy ending. But what the show is really about is the music. I'm in my 30's, so I'm familiar with many of these songs through their use in TV/Movies/commercials. So it was nice to see them performed in their original design. I was surprised that so many of these songs came from the same group. The best parts of the show were when they sang the familiar hits. So the first half was a little slow. And while they do have a lot of hits, the whole doo-wop style of singing did get a little old. The guy playing the lead singer Frankie Valli, does have a strong voice with wide pitch/tone. It was impressive, but got annoying a few times during the show. The high pitch delivery just doesn't have the same kind of appeal in today's music. And while one of the reasons we chose this show was to see something other than another Cirque du Soleil show, these kinds of show can seem a bit bland when compared to the spectacle that come with any CdS show. I was also surprised when I saw that JB is also one of the most expensive shows on the strip. So while it was a fun song/dance show, I would only recommend it if someone likes doo-wop music, is tired of the CdS shows, and can get the tickets on discount.
