SINATRA: One Last Shot

The midnight Sinatra you dream of meeting. Dangerous. Unpredictable. Brilliant.

New Year’s Eve, Palm Springs, 1979. Sinatra and the seventies are not a good fit. He hates retirement; his comeback album has flopped. The concerts still sell — he can fill a room — but he feels out of step with the times, and he is chasing the one big hit that might redefine him all over again.

Told through music and song from the privacy of his Palm Springs den — on New Year’s Eve, with a small group of invited showbiz pals — SINATRA: One Last Shot is a brand-new play starring multi-award-winner Richard Shelton, with live piano accompaniment. This is not the Sinatra of the greatest-hits package. This is the man after midnight — the doubt behind the swagger, the wit, the temper, the voice.

A new play by Bert Tyler Moore, with additional material by Richard Shelton — following his critically acclaimed Sinatra: RAW, which wowed critics worldwide.
