It is hard to imagine putting together a better collection of vocalists than the ones Scott Siegel gathered for his one-time-only show 54 Salutes Frank Sinatra: Celebrating His Second Century. Included in the cast were three truly marvelous male singers: Martin Vidnovic, John Easterlin, and Michael Winther; a wonderfully dramatic vocalist, Tony Award winner Tonya Pinkins; and an amazing, tap dancing, song-and-dance man Joshua Israel. In addition, these five performers were joined by a talented group of young singers. The 15 songs performed were almost all very much associated with Sinatra. Ross Patterson’s accompaniment on piano matched the various styles of the performers. As is always the case with a Siegel production, his introductory comments for each song were appropriate and interesting, placing each in the context of Sinatra’s 60-year career.

The first two numbers, “I Get a Kick Out of You” and “Night and Day,” were performed by D.J. Plunkett and Morgan Weed respectively. Vidnovic offered a very kinetic “You Make Me Feel So Young” and a moving “I Guess I’ll Hang My Tears Out to Dry.” His flair for comedy was displayed in his introduction to each song. Winther brought his booming voice and great facial expression to “For Once in My Life” and “I’m Gonna Live Till I Die.” Chelsea Whitney’s “The Way You Look Tonight” featured a nice solo by Patterson.

Israel dazzled with two song-and-dance numbers—“Blue Skies” and “Luck Be a Lady”—where his tap dancing brought the house down. Opera star Easterlin thrilled with his spectacular tenor on “Love Is a Many Splendored Thing” and an unplugged (no mic) “Without a Song” that received a standing ovation from the SRO crowd. Pinkins displayed both her acting and vocal skills with her performance of “One for My Baby (and One More for the Road).

” She then did a very different, up-tempo “It Was a Very Good Year” a là Eartha Kitt’s version, with a change of pronouns and some of the lyrics, intertwined with “September Song.” Morgan Weed did a soft “The Girl from Ipanema.” The Broadway By the Year Chorus made up of Siegel’s rising stars appropriately closed the show with “Theme from New York, New York.”
