On Wednesday, March 11, we went to Chicago to see Jersey Boys at Bank of America Theatre. We had lunch at the Park Grill at Millennium Park. This was our first visit to the park, which includes the McCormick Tribune Plaza and ice rink, Jay Pritzker Pavilion, and Cloud Gate Sculpture, also known as the "bean". Jersey Boys is a fast-paced musical telling the story of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. If you enjoy the music of the late 50's and 60's, you would love it. Great performance.
