Laguna Playhouse Presents MY WAY: A MUSICAL TRIBUTE TO FRANK SINATRA 7/7 -8/23

Someone once asked Frank Sinatra how he became so successful. His response: “Sing good songs!”

Thanks to his skilled vocals and gift as a storyteller, Sinatra turned the good songs he sang into timeless treasures. Nearly 60 of those songs can be heard during the musical revue My Way: A Musical Tribute to Frank Sinatra that runs July 7 – August 23 at The Laguna Playhouse. The show is directed by David Grapes, who conceived the revue along with Todd Olson.

My Way: A Musical Tribute to Frank Sinatra celebrates the pivotal moments of Sinatra’s life which solidified his legendary status, and recalls the essence of the man through the glorious music he sang. Four singers (two women and two men) croon Sinatra tunes on a nightclub-style set—a suitable ambiance for songs from the man who always dubbed himself “a saloon singer.”

From his early big band beginnings in the 1940s on through his Glory Days in Las Vegas with the Rat Pack in the 1960s and ending with his final performances in the 1990s as “The Chairman of the Board,” My Way: A Musical Tribute to Frank Sinatra is packed with the swingin’ songs that made Sinatra the hip prince of popular music.  Whether he exuded classic elegance or contemporary casual, Frank Sinatra was – and still is – the ultimate icon of cool.
