Celebrating Sinatra's 100th Birthday!
Our season begins with an amazing event - glorious music, amazing stories, Sinatra family treasures, and
. . . birthday cake!
Peter Oprisko, America's greatest Frank Sinatra interpreter, and a friend of the Sinatra family, will lead our celebration of Frank's 100th birthday. This won't be just any party.
In between songs, you'll hear the little known story of how Frank Sinatra - with a little help from a Chicago "friend" - helped swing the 1960 presidential election for John F. Kennedy. When Robert Kennedy then put the heat on the mafia, Sinatra had to placate his now-angry Chicago friend by bringing the Rat Pack for a week at the grand re-opening of the mob-run Villa Venice in our own Wheeling, Illinois. All that and birthday cake too!
This is a show that will not be seen anywhere ever again - don't miss it!
“ We should be opening for you! You're incredible!”
-– Bruce Johnston, The Beach Boys
