Review: Jersey Boys // QPAC & Prospero Arts

 ​   Before there was Beggin' by Måneskin and Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You by Andy Williams, there was Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, which is the source for the hit Jukebox Musical: Jersey Boys! Produced by QPAC and Prospero Arts, Jersey Boys  is the inspiring rags-to-riches tale of The Four Seasons.

This bare production utilises very basic set pieces with wooden chairs, a table and some blackened platforms. This multi layered set allowed for great depth and adaptability for the production to showcase differen...
