There are some artists who rightly deserve the credit – if it wasn’t for….. and THE FOUR SEASONS definitely fall into that category.
They didn’t just make it big, they were internationally massive, particularly in the 60s and 70s, although the success of The Jersey Boys musical cemented their fame for a new generation of fans in the noughties.
So paying tribute to such a phenomenal group takes something very special, and that’s exactly what the award-winning stage show WALK LIKE A MAN does.
You’ll be transported back to the year 1962: four guys, barely scraping a living, are singing doo wop beneath the street lamps of the tough New Jersey streets. The quartet had just recorded a song that was to change their lives.
The single Sherry lifted the quartet out of the projects, onto hit TV show American Bandstand and to the top of the Billboard charts. The Four Seasons had arrived – and the group went on to record a cascade of hit singles and albums, topping 100 million sales worldwide.
Hit touring production Walk Like a Man brings the Four Season’s incredible journey to life, and to town – live on stage.
The show is produced by Mark Halliday who actually starred in the Jersey Boys at London’s Prince Edward Theatre. He told us…..
“It features a cast of West End performers backed by musicians drawn from the country’s most popular stage shows.”
“Working its way through more than 30, million-selling songs, Oh What A Night of number one hits is in store. Book your seats for UK theatre’s favourite Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons show now.”
We see what you did there Mark!

It features hit singles Sherry, Big Girls Don’t Cry, Oh What a Night, Walk Like a Man, Can’t Take My Eyes off of You, Beggin’, Let‘s Hang On, Rag Doll, Working My Way Back to You, My Eyes Adored You, Bye Bye Baby, Fallen Angel, Grease, The Night, Who Loves You, Opus 17, Silence Is Golden, Big Man in Town, Dawn (Go Away) and Stay.
