Come Fly Away, the new Broadway musical conceived, choreographed and directed by Tony Award-winner Twyla Tharp by special arrangement with the Frank Sinatra Family and Frank Sinatra Enterprises come to The Lyric. The show follows four couples as they fall in and out of love during one song-and-dance filled evening at a crowded nightclub. Blending the legendary vocals of Frank Sinatra with a live on-stage big band and 14 of the world's finest dancers, Come Fly Away is a soaring musical fantasy of romance and seduction that features an unparalleled hit parade of classics, including "Fly Me To The Moon," "My Way" and "That's Life." The show's score combines classic and newly discovered vocal performances from the Sinatra archives, along with Sinatra's signature arrangements by Nelson Riddle, Billy May and Quincy Jones and others, plus brand-new charts, for this fresh and innovative musical.

Wonderful show! The first piece by their new(er) choreagrapher Amy shows some maturation on her part with more interaction/chemistry between the dancers than some of her previous work, and I loved the costumes. The second, Medea was extremely powerful and makes me need to reread my Euripydes as I don't remember the full story even though we did the play back in high school. The last, Smuin's Sinatra had me grinning and wishing I could dance like that the whole time--what fun!Written on Oct 08 2009

Description
Smuin Ballet begins its 2009-2010 season with an exciting world premiere by Smuin Ballet Choreographer-in-Residence Amy Seiwert. Seiwert’s World Premiere is accompanied by music from Grammy Award-winning group Kronos Quartet’s album Pieces of Africa, which reached number one on Billboard’s Top World Albums chart. The program continues with Michael Smuin’s Medea, a ballet of spellbinding theatrical power, weaving a story of passion, jealousy, and bloodthirsty revenge. And finally, a tribute-in-dance to the Chairman of the Board with Fly Me to the Moon, paying homage to the songs made famous by Frank Sinatra. “When Sinatra sings, you naturally want to dance,” said choreographer Michael Smuin. Fly Me to the Moon is the embodiment of the smooth and stylish melodies that have inspired generations, including his renditions of “The Way You Look Tonight,” “That’s Life,” “The Lady is a Tramp,” and many more.
