Jersey Boys is the smash hit jukebox musical that gives us the true, sometimes gritty and always spectacular entertaining story of falsetto idol Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. These boys strode onto the scene in 1965, wowing the public for 20 years with hits such as "Big Girls Don't Cry," "Oh What a Night," "Walk like a Man," and many more. Since its debut in 2005, Jersey Boys has become a must see, embedding itself in the Broadway landscape, playing over 3,000 performances and winning four Tonys, proving that the rags to riches, to rags again, story is an ever enduring theme! Jersey Boys is now on tour for the second time and hits the Pantages Theater Hollywood in Los Angeles. Join us on this special night! You will be let loose at Hollywood & Vine for an early dinner (on your own). Please check-in at the Pantages Box Office no later than 30 minutes prior to the 6:30 pm show.

After we finish breakfast we will take a short drive out to the "Guide Dogs of the Desert" facility for a guided 3 hour tour of the Training Center. When you arrive you will be greeted by one of the many volunteers who are puppy raisers, and you will meet the puppies and dogs.
