Frank - A Salute to Sinatra

A Celebration of Ol' Blue Eyes!

Featuring David Alacey and special guest star Anita Harris

Celebrating the iconic Frank Sinatra who was born in Hoboken, New Jersey in 1915, this show is far more than a tribute to Ol' Blue Eyes. The magic of Sinatra live in concert is captured perfectly by the award-winning David Alacey, who is recognised worldwide as one of the leading interpreters of his music.

This lavish production encapsulates not only the wonderful hit catalogue of the original legend, but also the remarkable personality of the star who ruled the world of entertainment for over half a century. It also features The Swinging Buddy Greco Band under the Direction of BBC Musical Director Mac Shone. Buddy Greco, who was a member of the extended Rat Pack at The Sands in the sixties with Sinatra, said of David's portrayal: "...this guy really is Sinatra! It's frightening." He even asked him to record a version of the classic One for My Baby with him!

Alacey is joined in the show by special guests including the legendary all-round entertainer Anita Harris, who will not only be singing her hits including Just Loving You and The Anniversary Waltz, but also recalling her days as a dancer in Las Vegas.

All of the hit songs and anthems made popular by Sinatra such as Come Fly With Me, The Lady Is a Tramp, My Way, Strangers in the Night and, of course, New York, New York are included along with many rarer gems.

So don't miss this opportunity to celebrate the life of a true legend and experience what it was really like to spend an evening in the presence of the greatest entertainer of the twentieth century doing it as only he could - his way!

Ladies and gentlemen from here on in it’s Frank Sinatra.

"David Alacey - well this guy really is Sinatra! It's frightening" - Vegas Legend, Buddy Greco

"His recording of Theme from New York, New York for Atari Games is too close for comfort" - The Sinatra Estate

"Alacey seemed to have somehow imbibed the very essence of 'ole blue eyes' before coming on stage. His performance was breathtaking - seriously! The tone, the modulation and the rhythm in his voice throughout the evening was genuine Sinatra. His masculine charm was also apparent in his pristine characterisation and it was with effortless charisma he strolled into the audience and sang I've Got You Under My Skin while chatting and engaging with the ladies - just like the icon" - Sarah Gudgeon, The Edinburgh Herald & Post

"David Alacey not only looked like Frank but he had the drawl, the wit and boy could he nail a tune. We may never see such greats as Frank Sinatra again in our lifetime but the good news is that as long as such talented impersonators continue to exist, we may not need to" - Chris Longhurst, Uxbridge Gazette

"Alacey wraps his late night programme at The Café Royal in elegant chic" - James Green, The Stage

"Sinatra himself (David Alacey who also devised and directed the show) strolled onto stage filling the theatre with a very close vocal of Ol' Blue Eyes himself - he was good, no very good!" - Helen Rawlings, The Gloucester Citizen

"The melancholic mood is wonderful but it soon bursts into action as Sinatra sings the songs that made him a legend. David Alacey is clearly a student, no, a master of Sinatra as he displays every movement from hand gestures to head turns. It is a fascinating performance" - Sally Casey, The Harlow Star
