It's a match made in Vegas! Two of the most impressive celebrity impersonators in the business -- Sharon Owens and Sebastian Anzaldo -- pay tribute to two of music's greatest icons -- Barbra Streisand and Frank Sinatra. In real life, Streisand and Sinatra never performed live together, but in this show, Owens and Anzaldo sing some of the most most memorable music ever written and exchange banter so spot-on to their characters that you feel like you've been transported to the celebrity concert you always wished had happened. For her amazing Streisand impersonation, Owens was winner of the Fox TV show Performing As..., which led to a series of TV appearances and a long run at the Las Vegas Riviera, where she headlined with Anzaldo in Barbra and Frank, The Concert That Never Was. Anzaldo, who has the voice, looks and mannerisms of 'Ol Blue Eyes, was one of the top acts on the Vegas circuit for eight years with his band Wild Life before joining forces with Owens for Barbra and Frank.

Barbara really knows how to put on a show. There were passerbys who were hanging from the window to watch her performance.Written on May 19 2008

Barbara was incredible, I have seen her at large dance venues but she absolutely comes alive in a smaller bluesy type of setting. I am soo glad that Kim was able to keep Jazz at Pearl's open, it is such a great Jazz Jewel for this city.Written on May 19 2008

Barbara Morrison is joy and delight personified. I go to see her whenever she appears in the Bay area. Jazz at Pearl's is a beautiful venue, the staff/service was lovely, helping me out with a special need, and best of all, we had front and center seats. Fabulous evening!Written on May 19 2008
