BARBRA AND FRANK Plays London , 11/24-12/18

Following sell-out seasons in America and worldwide, the hit Las Vegas tribute show Barbra & Frank: The Concert that Never Was... will arrive in the UK for a strictly limited engagement at the New Players Theatre from Wednesday 24 November to Saturday 18 December 2010, starring Sharon Owens as Barbra Streisand and Sebastian Anzaldo as Frank Sinatra.

A sensational tribute to Streisand and Sinatra, who are arguably the finest voices of the century, with a touch of seasonal magic thrown in, Barbra & Frank: The Concert that Never Was... offers an insight into what might have happened had these two powerhouses of popular music ever shared the same stage. Legends of a lifetime locked in harmony.

In the lauded Las Vegas show, Barbra and Frank: The Concert that Never Was..., the rapport of these two 20th century icons is brought to the fore. Fusing music and chat, the show includes segments in which Streisand and Sinatra create masterful duets of Somewhere, Something Stupid And New York, New York, and a sequence involving a delicate blending of two of their best signature songs, as Sinatra croons verses from It Was A Very Good Year intertwined with Streisand's eternally memorable The Way We Were.

Sharon Owens, winner of the smash hit US TV show Performing As..., and Sebastian
Anzaldo, runner-up in the equally popular US TV series The Next Best Thing and one of
America's best loved Sinatra interpreters, have captivated audiences around the world with
their originally self-produced Las Vegas show that brings laughter, tears and joy to every
person watching. Sebastian's crooning sounds of Sinatra bring "memories" to an audience
who remember the late great "ol' blue eyes" himself, while the uncanny looks of Sharon bring out the Funny Girl herself, Streisand, who does it the only way she knows how...Her Way.
