Seats Still Available For The Salerno Theatre Co's THE LEGENDARY BOBBY DARIN Tribute Event

The Salerno Theatre Co., "Tampa Bay's Musical Theatre Company," in association with Carrollwood Cultural Center and Venue Theatre, is pleased to present its cabaret series production of THE LEGENDARY Bobby Darin.

In an era of cool, Bobby Darin was the soundtrack. Darin was one of the most popular rock and roll teen idols of the late ‘50s, being one of the premier song stylists of the 1950s.

Starring Michael Mathews and featuring video interviews with Dick Clark, Sandra Dee, Tony Orlando, Nancy Sinatra and more, THE LEGENDARY Bobby Darin tells the story of Darin's short, but remarkable life told through his extraordinary music.

His career took off in 1958 when he wrote and recorded "Splish Splash"; this song was an instant hit, selling more than a million copies. In 1959, Bobby Darin recorded "Dream Lover", a ballad that became a multi-million seller. Propelled by the success of "Mack the Knife" (1959) and "Beyond the Sea" (1960), he broke attendance records at the legendary Copacabana, surpassing Frank Sinatra. Moving into the pop mainstream and nightclub circuit, his astounding career (4 gold records) continued almost unabated through the 1960s.

THE LEGENDARY Bobby Darin is the first in Salerno's new Kings of Swing Series that has been touring the State of Florida since 2008.

THE LEGENDARY Bobby Darin has three final performances in Pinellas County Friday, Saturday and Sunday at the Off-Broadway-style Venue Theatre in Pinellas Park. Show times are Friday and Saturday at 8:00 P.M. and Sunday at 3:00 P.M.

Ticket prices at Venue Theatre are $15.00 in advance and $20.00 at the door.

Tickets are available for purchase online at SalernoTheatre.com or by calling the box office at 1-877-275-7050. Discounted group rates are also available.

THE LEGENDARY Bobby Darin also features Salerno regulars Craig Hartfield, Tara Rodriguez and Ashley Massicotte.
