Richard Shelton’s masterful show revealing the man behind the music returns
following a sold out West End season. Palm Springs, California, 1971.
Frank Sinatra faces retirement, the air is electric and the crowd jockey
for position. But times are changing as the Stones and Bowie dominate the
charts. Things take an unexpected turn when he drinks One for My Baby too
many. This is the 2am Sinatra you dream of meeting. Dangerous.
Unpredictable. Brilliant. ‘Splendidly tough yet laid-back, authentic
performance’ (Times). ‘Singing the hits with style… marvellously played’
(Telegraph). ‘Quite simply phenomenal’ ***** (Mike Young, BBC Music).
