"If you like the hit songs of the 1960s, you will love The Midtown Men," said Bill Stephan, executive director of the Lied Center. "Between the top-shelf choreography, incredible vocal performances and legendary onstage chemistry, this is one of the most anticipated performances of the Lied Center's 25th anniversary season."

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.

These talented entertainers shared the Broadway stage for more than 1,000 performances in the mega-hit "Jersey Boys." Now as The Midtown Men, they've thrilled crowds on concert stages and symphony halls across the continent, and have delighted television audiences with performances on "Good Morning America," "Access Hollywood," "Katie" and "The Chew." They recently released their first radio single, "All Alone on Christmas," written and produced by rock icon and “The Sopranos” and “Lilyhammer” star Steven Van Zandt and backed by Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band.

This performance is made possible by the support of First National Bank.
