Step into the glamour and swagger of the 20th century’s greatest entertainer in Sinatra The Musical, a brand-new production that lands at the West End’s Aldwych Theatre. Directed and choreographed by Tony Award winner Kathleen Marshall, with a book by Joe DiPietro, this is the story of the boy from Hoboken who became the voice of a century.
From the smoky clubs of New Jersey to the bright lights of New York and the heyday of Las Vegas, the show follows Frank Sinatra’s meteoric rise, his loves and his losses - including his electric, tempestuous romance with Hollywood star Ava Gardner - all set to the songs that made him a legend.
Backed by a live orchestra, the score is a parade of standards: “Fly Me to the Moon,” “New York, New York,” “I’ve Got You Under My Skin,” “Come Fly with Me” and, of course, “My Way.” Charismatic, stylish and bursting with that inimitable Rat Pack cool, Sinatra The Musical is a love letter to Ol’ Blue Eyes and the American songbook he made his own.
