Duluth Playhouse is thrilled to kick off its 2024-2025 season with the global smash-hit sensation Jersey Boys, running September 13 - 29, 2024 at the NorShor Theatre. The Tony and Grammy® Award-winning musical follows the fascinating evolution of four blue-collar kids who became one of the greatest successes in pop-music history. 

Set against the gritty backdrop of 1950s New Jersey, the jukebox musical tells the riveting story of young Frankie Valli, Tommy DeVito, and Nick Massi as they claw their way to the top of the music world. Determined to escape their rough beginnings, they join forces with songwriter Bob Gaudio, creating the legendary Four Seasons. Their breakout hit, "Sherry," catapults them into the spotlight, leading to a string of chart-toppers like "Big Girls Don't Cry" and "Walk Like a Man." But as their fame skyrockets, so do the pressures and conflicts within the group, threatening to tear them apart. Through it all, Frankie Valli pushes forward, carving out a solo career that cements his place in music history. The musical climaxes with the band's induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990, a powerful tribute to their enduring impact and the unforgettable songs that defined a generation.

High Key Mondays are back! Breathe in the fresh tunes and move to the groovy air. Bring your kids and grandparents. The show is for all ages and is free.
Their rhythms may be a little bossy. Their drummers commanded me to feel Saucy. Another Duluth band that can hold a groove. The Bass lines funk and the booties move. Some songs tell stories and others tell moods. They sing about friends and they sing about foods. With Improvisations both jarring and dreamy, one guitar clucks and the other one creamy. Looking for a band to follow outta the fog? Well, look no further than New Salty Dog.
Duluth-based Northwoods funk jam band New Salty Dog consists of Jacob Mahon on guitar and vocals, drummer Owen “Owie” Mahon (who also does vocals), Sam Deters on guitar, Bryon “Lefty” Johnson on percussion, Calvin “Calzone” Lund on the Bass and Gavin St. Clair on the keys.

NVR TGTHR is an all-caps band for all-caps times, and they’ve got no time for vowels, either, dammit. Formed by a few Duluth, Minnesota scene vets alongside a couple fresh(er) faces, NVR TGTHR is a fivesome that brings the dark-pop quiet storm from a sometimes-dark place full of frequently-loud storms. Mr. Wonderful - same awesome NVR TGTHR musicians - along with Kaylee Matuszak - different flavor. Mr. Wonderful will be playing all your favorite Fleetwood Mac tunes.
