Frank Sinatra | David Leveaux | high-tech maneuvering &mdash | Anna Fialho

The Return Of Ol’ Blue Eyes

by Anna Fialho
Frank Sinatra is hitting the big stage once again — albeit a little posthumously. In “Sinatra at the London Palladium,” director David Leveaux takes audiences on a trip through the life and career of arguably one of the world’s most popular entertainers ever. Via rare and never-before-seen film footage capturing him at the peak of his career, Sinatra himself sings his hit songs directly to the audience, and — using some high-tech maneuvering — he even manages to perform with backup singers, dancers, and a 24-piece live orchestra. It may not quite be all of him, but we’ll take it nonetheless. Through October 7; $43 to $96. www.ticketmaster.co.uk or www.sinatra.com— Anna Fialho
