Growing up in Newark, New Jersey is tough enough but when you are a scrawny, horny, near-sighted Italian teenager it is even worse. And when the chicks don't dig you, there is only one man you can turn to for romance advice and guidance - the man and the legend himself, Frank Sinatra - who also happens to be from New Jersey. So when the ghost of 'Old Blue Eyes' shares his ring-a-ding-Rat Pack rules of how to get the dolls with his biggest fan, it takes him on a journey of awkward, hilarious and sometimes raunchy, self-discovery in the one-man music-comedy "Frank Sinatra Screwed Up My Life".
