This sensational production reunites Four Stars from the Original Broadway Cast of Jersey Boys. Tony Award winner Christian Hoff, Michael Longoria, Daniel Reichard and Tony Award nominee J. Robert Spencer star in this one-of-a-kind concert experience celebrating the music that defined the ’60s.<\/span><\/p>\n

These talented entertainers shared the Broadway stage for over a thousand performances in the mega-hit Jersey Boys. Now, as The Midtown Men, they\u2019ve thrilled crowds on concert stages and symphony halls across the continent, and have delighted television audiences with performances on \u201cThe Today Show\u201d, “Good Morning America,” “Access Hollywood,” “Katie,” and “The Chew.” The Men recently released their first radio single, “All Alone On Christmas,” written and produced by rock icon and\u00a0Sopranos<\/i>\u00a0and\u00a0Lilyhammer\u00a0<\/i>star Steven Van Zandt and backed by Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band. They were honored to perform the song at the White House for the National Tree Lighting Ceremony in Washington DC.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last year the group released their first public television concert special, The Midtown Men Live in Concert. Taped at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center\u2019s majestic Prudential Hall, the program launched in the NYC area on NJTV and WNET in December 2014 and ran in markets nationwide.\u00a0 Their new PBS show, Meet the Midtown Men, goes behind the scenes and behind the songs to get an inside, up close and personal look at the Men and their music.\u00a0 It premiered in August 2015 and is airing in markets nationally.<\/span><\/p>\n

Their recent show at NYC’s famed Beacon Theater was a sellout smash and featured guest stars Shirley Alston Reeves from the Shirelles, La La Brooks from The Crystals, Gene Cornish from The Rascals and Petula Clark, who had 3000 people up on their feet for \u201cDowntown.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
