鈥淪ome of my most thrilling nights have been while I was on tour, bringing my music to audiences across the world,鈥� said Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Diamond in a statement. 鈥淗aving A Beautiful Noise go on tour is an honor, and I can鈥檛 wait for audiences across North America to experience this show. I hope they enjoy it as much as I have.鈥�

Producer Ken Davenport added, 鈥淣eil is one of the best live entertainers the world has ever seen. In his 50-year career, he鈥檚 performed for millions of fans around the globe. I couldn鈥檛 imagine a more perfect way to honor his legacy than having A Beautiful Noise touring North America, visiting the same cities where he gave so many people so much joy. I look forward to launching the tour in Providence, Rhode Island, a city that has been in love with Neil鈥檚 music for decades and where Neil himself performed almost a dozen times.鈥�

Producer Bob Gaudio stated, 鈥淲hen Neil and I first started talking about making a musical using his music, I knew how daunting that would be. With Jersey Boys, I learned how vital it is to have a first-rate creative team making sure everything weaves together. We have that on A Beautiful Noise鈥攁n incisive book that tells Neil鈥檚 story honestly, fantastic choreography, one of the best directors on Broadway guiding the entire production, and of course, Neil鈥檚 iconic songs. Having the show go on tour is an exciting next step and I look forward to being there on opening night in Providence.鈥�
