Theatregoers are advised to snap up their tickets fast for the new Sinatra, Sequins & Swing The Capitol Years Live! concert-show coming to Epsom Playhouse on Friday 20 June. This is not to be mistaken with the typical tribute Rat Pack shows. Expect to be musically wowed by an honest rendition of the Fifties Hollywood glamour of Sinatra’s supreme Capitol Records years and a world-class 15 piece big band live on stage.

The stage will be filled with talented swing vocals supported by top musicians from likes of BBC Big Band, Ronnie Scotts Orchestra, John Wilson Orchestra and conducted by MD of Ronnie Scotts Orchestra, Pete Long. The significant 1950s Capitol Records era will be celebrated by faithfully recreated full big band arrangements of hits such as ‘World on a String’, ‘Come Fly With Me’, ‘Chicago’, ‘Witchcraft’ and several duets like ‘Who Wants To Be A Millionaire’.

Fronted by Kevin Fitzsimmons, an acclaimed Big Band/jazz singer who’s recreated both Frank Sinatra’s voice for a TV commercial with Hollywood movie star Naomi Watts and Dean Martin’s voice for a radio commercial. Having performed his own sell out shows at world famous Ronnie Scott’s and released a jazz album to critical acclaim, booked for private events for many celebrity and VIP clients worldwide over the last decade, including Sir Trevor Macdonald, HRH Prince of Wales and more, singer/co-producer, Kevin Fitzsimmons, delivers a unique new offering to UK’s theatres. He said: “The show is a key event for any fan of Sinatra, Big Bands, Swing and 50′s Hollywood. And if you like The Rat Pack – you’ll love this wonderful ’Capitol Years’ show.”

The show will also feature world-class retro jazz starlet Kitty La Roar providing a visual Hollywood screen siren Marilyn Monroe look with a real talented sultry voice.

The Frank Sinatra ‘Capitol Years’ spanned from 1953 to1960, shortly after Frank’s Oscar winning performance for the classic movie ‘From here to Eternity’ (on leaving Capitol in 1960, to form Reprise Records, he met soon-to-be ‘The Rat Pack’ buddies on the set of Ocean’s 11 in Vegas). This Capitol era was the pinnacle of Sinatra’s career - and the heyday of Hollywood screen goddesses and other huge singing stars like Peggy Lee, Bobby Darin, Ella Fitzgerald. And so Kevin, Kitty and & Pete Long’s orchestra deliver a humorous, glamorous concert-style show.
