Written and performed by Richard Shelton
Mon 3 June 7.30pm Palm Springs, 1971.
Frank Sinatra prepares for his last pre-retirement intimate show. But his blue
eyes are red rimmed with memories and regret. He drinks ‘One For My Baby’ too many when things take an unexpected twist. This is the 2am Sinatra you dream of meeting – dangerous, unpredictable, brilliant!
The critically acclaimed, multi award-winning show Sinatra: RAW stars actor and singer Richard Shelton, accompanied on piano. Wolverhampton-born and fondly remembered from ITV’s Emmerdale, Shelton is internationally acclaimed as one of the world’s best interpreters of Frank Sinatra’s music. Sinatra: RAW brings to life the man who defined an era, and whose musical legacy will never die.
