Big things are happening DEC 15, 2017 – JAN 14, 2018
Frank Sinatra had a milestone birthday recently – he would have been 100 years old. This wonderful production is a celebration of the life and music of one of our most enduring vocal legends. I invite you all to join me at Cinnabar Theater, in North Petaluma, CA, to celebrate the music of the man many call the greatest pop vocalist of the 20th Century.
“His songs will never sound old-fashioned. He always sang quality songs . . . no matter what year they’d be played in, they would never sound out of date.” − Tony Bennett
My Way – A Musical Tribute to Frank Sinatra is a delightful show that includes some of Sinatra’s best and most beloved songs. The show was created by David Grapes and Todd Olson – César Cancino is our Musical Director. Now that it is all official, the cast includes:

Fun Begins Now
That first step, seeing the score and beginning that arduous, I mean “fun,” process of memory work is always a rush!
It was thrilling and happy coincidence to learn that Mark Robinson, aka Man #2, lives just block away from me here the city! Carolyn and Desiree are also in the area. I’m sure well be seeing each other in short order. Should make rehearsals a breeze! Learning a new show, working with talented artists, and diving into exciting adventures like this is what life’s all about.
Life is good!
Folks Who Make the Magic Happen
A special note of appreciation for all the people working to bring this wonderful production to life. To work with such a talented cast, band, staff, and crew is always a pleasure. And to see familiar faces like that of Music Director, César Cancino again – makes things all the more special. He played my Cole Porter show once and is fabulous!

About Cinnabar Theater
According to its Wikipedia page, “The Cinnabar Theater, located in Petaluma, California, is a professional non-profit theater producing opera and musical theatre, drama and a chamber music series in a 120-seat venue, under the auspices of the Cinnabar Arts Corporation. The venue is also home to the Young Repertory Theater (founded in 1983), the longest running and largest youth performing arts program in Sonoma County.”
Cinnabar’s mission is to present a wide range of theatrical, musical, and operatic works that are relevant to contemporary life – challenging to audiences and artists alike. Cinnabar has created an environment that fosters the experimentation and exploration needed to produce high-quality performances. They focus on productions that can be enjoyed for their technique and artistry, as well as their connection to life and living. In addition, Cinnabar is committed to training young people in the performing arts. To draw lasting and meaningful connections between the arts and one’s daily life is at the heart of all they do. I am thrilled to have the experience of doing a show in this generative space.
I look forward to seeing you here in December & January!
