About the show
Written by Tony Award winner Joe DiPietro (Memphis) and directed by Kathleen Marshall (Anything Goes), Sinatra The Musical begins on New Year’s Eve, 1942. It follows a 27-year-old singer about to give a career-defining performance in New York that would alter music history forever.
The score features over 20 of Sinatra’s most iconic hits, including “That’s Life”, “One For My Baby”, “The Best Is Yet to Come”, and “I’ve Got the World on a String”.
First seen at the Birmingham Rep in 2023, this West End transfer marks the most revealing portrait of the singer ever brought to the stage, and is backed by the Sinatra family.
