It has been announced that Sinatra The Musical will begin performances at the Aldwych Theatre this summer, playing from the 3rd June with official opening night set for 24th June.

Among the songs that feature in the show include: “That’s Life”, “One for My Baby”, “The Best Is Yet To Come” and “Come Fly With Me”.
Talking about the show, Sinatra’s daughter Tina Sinatra said: “Set against the backdrop of my father’s meteoric rise, the show reveals a more intimate portrait of the man than any interview or headline ever could. And just like my dad, it’s full of music and passion and humour. I am so proud to share his story – our story – at long last.”
Sinatra the Musical was written by Joe DiPietro (Memphis, What’s New Pussycat?), with the production being directed and choreographed by Kathleen Marshall.
