ABOUT THE SHOW
COME FLY AWAY is the new Broadway musical that brings together the legendary vocals of FRANK SINATRA and the creative vision of Tony Award-winner TWYLA THARP (Movin' Out). This one-of-a-kind experience combines the seductive vocals of "Ol' Blue Eyes" with the sizzling sound of a live on-stage big band and the visceral thrill of Tharp's choreography. As 14 of the world's best dancers tell the story of four couples falling in and out of love, you will experience the exhilaration of a first kiss, the excitement of a first dance, and the bittersweet moments of a first good-bye in a world of sparkling romance and astonishing beauty. COME FLY AWAY features a host of beloved Sinatra classics, including "Fly Me to the Moon," "My Way," "New York, New York" and "Witchcraft."

I'll be glad to see this again in Miami. I saw the show last July when it was in New York and it's as close to mecca for Sinatra fans as you're likely to find.

Go see it folks, it is worth the effort. I'm glad I made the effort to go to Las Vegas, I hope it comes close by again. Too bad Salt Lake City is not on the list, would love to take Mom.
