John Lloyd Young Shares His Tony Memories on Broadway.com!

When a Broadway debut yields a Best Actor Tony Award, it’s obvious that the performer and role are perfectly matched. Such was the case when John Lloyd Young burst onto the Broadway scene as Frankie Valli in Jersey Boys. In bringing the Four Seasons icon to life, Young gave a magnetic star turn (featuring an impeccable falsetto) and was rewarded with a Tony in what he acknowledges was stiff competition. Young looked back on his winning night for Broadway.com.
