Following an extended, 44-week run at the California stage — where the tour launched Dec. 1, 2006 — producers have announced the Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons musical will come back for an encore engagement. The recent run ended Sept. 30.

There are currently two touring companies performing the Tony-winning show. The return to San Francisco will mark the debut of a third company. For a list of upcoming tour stops visit jerseyboystour.com.
