The Kings Wharf Theatre presents Jersey Boys
Jersey Boys is the international musical phenomenon that takes you behind the scenes – and behind the music – of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons. Discover the secret of a 40-year friendship as four blue-collar guys work their way from the wrong side of the tracks to the heights of stardom, thrilling audiences with electrifying performances of chart-topping hits including “Sherry,” “Big Girls Don’t Cry,” “Oh What a Night,” and “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You.”
This is a very popular event so please do not be disappointed and get your tickets at the meeting. Last years Buddy Holly Story was a big success. Kings Wharf is an hours drive to Penatanguishene. At the waterside by the theatre we will have a picnic lunch (about noon) prior to the 2pm Matinee. As with last year, it is a self drive and bring your own picnic event. Friends, Neighbours and Family members most welcome to attend.
Tickets are: $53.
Performance is: Wednesday, August 14th, 2024.
Matinee: 2pm
Contact: Doug Smith
