First of all, congrats to Drew Gehling (Bob Gaudio) and some of our boys for performing in a BC/EFA charity show. Drew and actress, Sara Jean Ford (Christine Daae in Chicago's The Phantom of the Opera) put on a cabaret on January 2nd. The one-night-only show featured appearances from other Jersey Boys Chicago cast members: Jake Speck, Ryan Quinn West, Mike Erickson and Jarrod Spector. http://chicago.broadwayworld.com/viewcolumn.cfm?colid=24080

It's official. Rumor has been buzzing for a long time of cast swapping in Jersey Boys companies. Now that news has been released, it is safe to announce the departure of our Tommy Devito, Jeremy Kushnier. He'll be leaving the 2nd National Tour to join the Vegas cast at the Palazzo. Along with Jeremy, the show will star Erich Bergen (Bob Gaudio)- coming to this cast from the "Sherry" company. Jeff Leibow (Nick Massi) and Rick Faugno (Frankie Valli) complete the quartet. Best of luck to Jeremy who will follow his character to Las Vegas starting March/April. http://www.jerseyboysinfo.com/vegas/
