Playhouse on Park Presents Come Fly Away V-tines Day Tribute to Sinatra

Rob Zappulla, backed by his seven-piece band, will perform the timeless hits of Frank Sinatra! Rob's show spans the five decades of classic Sinatra, from the days with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra to the Las Vegas show rooms. Rob's tribute emulates a cabaret setting in the show rooms of the 50s and 60s, where Sinatra gave some of his most memorable performances. This show moves non-stop with excitement.

The Hartford Courant reviewed Rob as "An engaging presence and a hard-charging band that puts a smile on your face and a bounce to your step."

Tickets include entry to The Playhouse's own Valentine's Day celebration, featuring a dessert reception and dancing immediately following the performance!
