A New Musical
CREATED BY BRIAN PEKOL
Directed by Raye Birk
We know the voice, but we never bothered getting to know the man. To do that, we have to start at the beginning...
In this full-length dramatic musical, Francis Albert Sinatra is just another kid from Hoboken who wants to make it big and become a star. Watch as he finds out just how rough a path lies ahead of him... Experience his professional rise and fall from grace, his tempestuous romance with Ava Gardner, and his triumphant Oscar-winning career turnaround in 'From Here to Eternity' in this brand-new production from the creator of the acclaimed jukebox musical, 'Unsung'. Accompanied by the sounds of an on-stage orchestra, and featuring hits including "I've Got the World On A String", "All of Me" and "New York, New York", this story will illuminate the complex psyche behind the piercing blue eyes and unforgettable voice of Frank Sinatra.
