This sounds like it was pretty bad but as a lover of Broadway theatre, I'm kind of curious if any of you saw it and what you thought of it.

I saw the show; it was ok, nothing particularly memorable about it, other than it was sort of Beach Blanket Bingo meets Broadway.

Funny that this fell into obscurity while The Four Seasons musical is a massive success. I love both groups but if I was a betting man I'd have put my money on Jersey Boys being the one that bombed.

Maybe so, but it happens. Jersey Boys is really entertaining and done very well!  I never got a chance to see GV; I'm surprised anyone did with its' short run

I'm also intrigued by this. I'll admit it looks awful and the reviews are scathing.

For those interested here's a performance of Fun, Fun, Fun
