Frank Sinatra’s singing career spanned decades as did his acting career which covered 1941 to 1970, from thrillers to musicals (plus a bout as director). With the resurgence of ‘lounge’ music, Sinatra’s songs have found a new legion of fans. We hope that this brief season, programmed to complement the re-release of HIGH SOCIETY will offer the opportunity to (re)discover Sinatra’s cinematic legacy. Please note that film choice has been heavily influenced by availability.
