WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Nominated for 2 Tony Awards including Best Choreography for Twyla Tharp.
Come Fly Away, the new musical from visionary director/choreographer Twyla Tharp, 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 19-piece big band and 15 of the world's finest dancers, Come Fly Away weaves an unparalleled hit parade of classics, including "Fly Me To The Moon," "My Way," and "That's Life" into a soaring musical fantasy of romance and seduction.

Twyla Tharp and Frank Sinatra are hardly strange bedfellows. The Chairman of the Board and the Queen of Dance have hooked up before, but Come Fly Away, their first mating for a Broadway audience now at the Marquis Theater, is much more than a one-night stand. This consistently diverting, sometimes intoxicating, and beautifully performed dance-theater piece is likely to please long-time Tharp and Sinatra devotees, and perhaps even turn one's followers into the other's fans.
