MY WAY: Swingin' and Swayin' Frank Sinatra Revue Continues Through August 23 at the Laguna Playhouse

When Frank Sinatra passed away in May of 1998, America, it seemed, lost one of its most iconic and treasured song stylists. Sinatra in his day was one of only a handful of artists that transcended mere celebrity star status, thanks to a career that spanned film, television, recordings, and the stage. With a style often imitated (and at times parodied) even today, Sinatra popularized the Great American Songbook, thanks to his signature vocals and easy, confident persona. Many consider his recordings to be the definitive versions of any given song he touched.
