1000 Broadway Shows

OK HERE ARE A FEW PICTURES, COURTESY OF WANDA LIBARDI..SINCE I FORGOT MY CAMERA. RICK ELICE, MARSHALL BRICKMAN AND BOB GAUDIO THREW THIS WONDERFUL PARTY CELEBRATING OUR 1000 PERFORMANCE, GRAMMY GOING GOLD, AND ME GOING HOME..LOL.

IT WAS AT THE PALM RESTAURANT.ON THE WAY OUT THAT NIGHT, JUDY GAUDIO SHOWED ME A FANTASTIC RENDERING OF FRANKIE AND BOB, AND UNDERNEATH THEM THE 4 BOYS WHO PLAY THEM ON STAGE.. SO IF YOU GO IN THE RESTARAUNT LOOK FOR IT.

RICK GAVE AN AMAZING SPEECH , ALMOST 6 PAGES LONG..THAT ONLY CONFIRMS HIS WIT AND BRILLIANCE AND UTTER STUTTERING AND STUPIDITY IN HIS PRESENCE ..LOL.HE HAS THE LARGEST HEART IN THE WORLD.. IT WAS SO NICE TO TALK ONE ON ONE WITH EACH OF THEM, AND THE PRODUCERS OF THE SHOW WHO CAME AND THE USHERS, WARDROBE, HAIR ..EVERY DEPARTMENT. IT WAS LIKE BEING AT YOUR OWN FUNERAL , AND HEARING NICE THINGS SAID ABOUT YOU…BUT YOU’RE ALIVE….AND HOW APROPOS CONSIDERING IT WAS EASTER SUNDAY…. ENJOY …JENNIFER

    Looks like it was a very emotional evening, but fun. It was very fitting that it was Easter, a celebration of growth and birth. :)

    What a wonderful celebration of 1,000 Performances of JERSEY BOYS, Grammy going Gold and most importantly, a celebration of YOU and all that you have contributed and done in this show from the beginning to a new beginning. I hope your successor knows she has quite a classy act to follow. . .and I know you will be cheering for her and everybody from the sidelines. You rock Jennifer!
