See the rise and sharp fall of Frank Sinatra’s career from a young Italian American with a voice, to the musician with the bad-boy reputation. Yet at the height of his fame, he risked it all when he met Ava Gardner. As his loyalty fails towards his wife, the rest of the world turns their backs too. See the story of how Sinatra climbs his way to the top once again, with his hit songs ‘My Way,’ ‘That’s Life,’ ‘Come Fly with Me’ and ‘You Make me Feel so Young.’

Get a kick out of this musical spectacular, Sinatra: The Musical at the Aldwych Theatre.
