Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davies Jnr are paid tribute to by an all-star cast accompanied by a 15-piece orchestra in a production that brings the music and the lives of these legendary characters together again.
The show celebrates the incredible singing talent of three world famous entertainers and performers and some of the finest music and song that has ever been recorded. As you drift back to a glamorous era where the famous rubbed shoulders with the politicians and partied hard, Frank, Sammy & Dean, all singing, all dancing, all round entertainers, injected not only their songs into the 50s and 60s, but a lifestyle that everyone wanted.
Legends of the 20th Century, idols of the music industry, superstars of the movies, Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jnr and Dean Martin are above all renowned worldwide for their talented voices. Their unique contribution to 20th Century popular music is second to none. Frank, Sammy & Dean all received critical acclaim quite late in their careers and it wasn't until the late 50s and early 60s when they stormed the world and stayed at the top. As their recordings still constantly chart high throughout the world, these icons of American history, their talent universal, were a force to be reckoned with, an inexhaustible energy which is as apparent in their music today as it ever was.
‘Everybody Loves Somebody Sometime', ‘I've Got You Under My Skin', ‘Me And My Shadow', Memories Are Made Of This', ‘Night And Day', ‘Sway', ‘Strangers In The Night', That's Amore', ‘That Old Black Magic', ‘The Lady Is A Tramp', ‘Volare', ‘Witchcraft' are just some of the songs that will be featured.
