Recording a date with Frank
12:00am Thursday 15th May 2008
HE may have died ten years ago this month but a little thing like that was never going to stop Frank Sinatra who is soon to be appearing on tour in the multi-media extravaganza- Sinatra In Concert.
Directed by the Tony award winning David Leveaux, Sinatra In Concert uses ground breaking technology and rare live footage to bring Ol' Blue Eyes himself back to the stage.
The show features archive footage of Frank from his late 50's heyday projected onto a number of moving screens.
This multi-media design creates an illusion of interaction between the legendary entertainer and the shows live company of singers and dancers.
The Sinatra family has given the show its full backing and allowed the producers access to their private archive material and home movies.
Originally filmed on 35mm the exclusive footage has been cleaned and edited resulting in a combined sight and sound experience that transports its audience to a different time- a time when one of the world's bestloved singers was at the peak of his career.
A live orchestra will be playing all of Frank's old classics including, New York, New York, Come Fly With Me and My Way.
The tour comes to the Cliffs Pavilion on Tuesday, May 20 where it will run for six days.
