Our Sinatra Returns With the People Who Made It Sing
Twenty-five years after Our Sinatra became one of Off-Broadway’s unexpected musical pleasures, Eric Comstock, Christopher Gines and Hilary Kole have returned to the material that started it all. What is remarkable is how little dust has gathered on either the songs or the performers.
Our Sinatra: A Musical Celebration, now at the Marjorie S. Deane Little Theater, isn’t an impersonation show. Nobody is trying to become Frank Sinatra, and that is precisely why the evening works. Instead, three exceptionally accomplished interpreters take on the extraordinary catalogue Sinatra made famous and allow the songs to breathe in their own voices. “Fly Me to the Moon,” “The Way You Look Tonight,” “Come Fly with Me,” “The Best Is Yet to Come,” “I’ve Got You Under My Skin,” “Where or When,” “One for My Baby” and “The Lady Is a Tramp” arrive carrying all the memories we associate with Sinatra, without becoming museum pieces. Ironically missing is “My Way.”
The chemistry among Comstock, Gines and Kole is the evening’s greatest asset. After all these years, they fit together musically with an ease that cannot be manufactured. In harmony, their voices match beautifully, yet individually they couldn’t be more distinct. That contrast keeps the evening alive.
At the piano, Comstock is brilliant, with the kind of musical intelligence that makes everything look considerably easier than it is. As musical director, his choices feel intuitive and instinctive rather than arranged within an inch of their lives. As a singer, he is suave, personable and completely at home in this material. His patter is equally important. Comstock understands that Sinatra’s catalogue came from a world in which the space between the songs mattered almost as much as the songs themselves.
Gines brings a wonderfully smooth, creamy vocal quality that simply melts you. There is warmth in his singing without sentimentality, and he understands the conversational nature of this music. Sinatra’s greatest performances never sounded as though he were demonstrating how beautifully he could sing; they sounded as though he had something to tell you. Gines understands that distinction.
Then there is Hilary Kole, whose sophisticated jazz sensibility makes her particularly thrilling in this material. She honors the Sinatra sound without ever becoming imprisoned by it. Her scatting on “I’ve Got the World on a String” is worth the evening by itself. It is playful, technically dazzling and completely alive—a performer taking a familiar song and reminding us that a standard becomes a standard precisely because there is always another way into it.
That is what makes Our Sinatra so fabulous. These performers aren’t trying to preserve the songs under glass. They make them their own.
Kole’s stories about her father and Sinatra give the evening an unexpectedly personal dimension, while Comstock’s patter provides both history and humor. Those stories matter because Sinatra wasn’t simply a singer with an enviable songbook. He represented an era when popular music was built around lyricists and composers who assumed an audience was listening to the words. Cole Porter, Rodgers and Hart, Sammy Cahn, Jimmy Van Heusen and the other writers whose work became inseparable from Sinatra understood sophistication without mistaking it for pretension.
The musical economy of the production is another pleasure.
Backed only by the superb bassist Marco Panascia, Comstock’s piano provides everything these singers require. There is nowhere to hide in an arrangement this exposed, but there is also nothing unnecessary competing with the lyric. The result has the intimacy of a great New York supper club—the kind of room where the performer wasn’t some distant figure across an arena, but someone telling a story a few feet away.
That intimacy is particularly appropriate because Our Sinatra began in precisely that world. Created by Comstock, Gines and Kole, the revue premiered in 1999 at the legendary Algonquin Oak Room before moving into a commercial run in 2000, first at the Blue Angel Theatre and later the Reprise Room. It ultimately played more than 1,000 performances during its two-year run, followed by national tours and regional productions. Now the original trio has come home to celebrate its 25th anniversary, with Richard Maltby Jr. supervising the production and Kurt Stamm directing.
There is inevitably nostalgia in Our Sinatra, but nostalgia isn’t what makes the show work. The songs do. In an age when so much music is produced, processed and digitally perfected, there is something wonderfully luxurious about sitting in a small theatre listening to three singers, a pianist and a bassist trust melody, lyric and musicianship to do the work. And they do.
Our Sinatra takes us back to another time, but it doesn’t feel embalmed by that time. Comstock, Gines and Kole remind us why these songs survived in the first place: extraordinary writing becomes new again when extraordinary musicians know what to do with it.
Twenty-five years later, Our Sinatra is very welcome back.
Our Sinatra: at the Marjorie S. Deane Little Theater, 10 West 64th Street, through November 29th. The regular performance schedule is Tuesday at 7:30PM, Saturday at 5PM and Sunday at 1:30PM.

CARREY IS MISSING — When The Mask came out in 1994 and introduced us to Jim Carrey, we immediately knew he was an actor of extraordinary talent. Directed by the late Chuck Russell, it was just masterful in every way. It also introduced us to a new actress named Cameron Diaz.
To be honest, I began to think of him as the best comic-actor since Andy Kauffman and then he went onto to do Man On The Moon (directed by Milos Forman) about Kauffman. Again, just a superlative role for him and a great tale about the late-comic.
The Truman Show (directed by Peter Weir) showed audiences he had just a terrific range. Not only was it a tremendous story, but again just a terrific performance. Ed Harris wasn’t that bad either!
Dumb and Dumber and Liar, Liar were great, but then he did Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind which for me, proved once and for all, where he was headed. Carrey was a thinker and probably much more so than audiences thought. He paints, he draws … a true renaissance man.
But of late he’s gone silent and many say he’s departed acting for good. Sure, there’s a Grinch movie every so often, but I suspect that’s more for the huge payday, than the content.
Some personal travails have followed and probably given him even more reason for pause. The Telegraph in the U.K. ran an interesting piece the other day, which made me think about him and how much I miss him.

WEBBER VS. RICE — Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice first gained worldwide prominence with their stupendous Jesus Christ Superstar opera. in 1971 It was good, dammed good, but there was a constant rumor that side 2 was side 1 backwards. The opera had Ian Gillan as JC and Yvonne Elliman as Mary Magdalene. There even was a movie in 1973; many stage productions and a pretty grand TV production several years back.
The fact remains that it’s a staggeringly good play with some terrific music. Webber and Rice would split years later but it was recently announced they’d re-group for a new work called Sherlock Homes and the 12 Days of Christmas. It would have been their first collaboration in 40 years.
Rice told the Times on Wednesday (October 21) that his former partner’s songs had been “ditched” after Lloyd Webber allegedly withdrew his score. Webber claims that Rice’s contract called for more than Webber wanted to give. It’s also note worthy that Rice’s children are producing the play.
Whatever the true reasons, this re-collaboration would have been monumental. The two have enjoyed success beyond their wildest dreams and unfortunately, with this latest development, the work they did collaborate on we won’t hear.
The play’s debut is set for late next month. Here’s more from Broadwayworld.com: https://www.broadwayworld.com/article/Andrew-Lloyd-Webbers-Songs-Cut-From-Musical-Written-With-Tim-Rice-Ahead-Of-London-Run-20261022

Broadway
Pasek & Paul, Lin-Manuel Miranda and Sara Bareilles Headline Three Intimate Evenings Celebrating the Future of Musical Theater.
Broadway has always been an art form built on reinvention, with each generation of composers finding new ways to tell stories through music. Now Lincoln Center Theater is bringing some of musical theater’s most influential contemporary voices together with the artists who may shape its next chapter.
The inaugural Composer Series, presented at the Vivian Beaumont Theater, will feature three one-night-only events headlined by Tony, Grammy and Academy Award-winning songwriting duo Benj Pasek and Justin Paul on November 30, Lin-Manuel Miranda on December 14, and Sara Bareilles on June 21, 2027. Rather than traditional concerts devoted exclusively to established hits, these evenings will pair celebrated songwriters with emerging composers they have personally selected, offering audiences an unusual opportunity to hear musical theater’s present and future in the same room.
It is an intriguing proposition. Broadway has never lacked talented young writers, but developing a new musical requires far more than a memorable melody. It takes mentorship, opportunity, financial support and, perhaps most importantly, someone willing to recognize a distinctive voice before the industry has decided what to do with it. The Composer Seriesplaces that relationship at the center of the evening.
The series opens Monday, November 30, at 8 p.m. with Pasek & Paul, whose work on Dear Evan Hansen, The Greatest Showman, La La Land and A Christmas Story has helped redefine the relationship between Broadway songwriting and contemporary popular music. Joining them are five emerging artists whose backgrounds reflect just how dramatically the musical theater landscape is evolving: Barlow & Bear, Marie Dresselhuis, Joriah Kwamé, Oliver Richman and Jaheem King Toombs.
Among the most recognizable are Abigail Barlow and Emily Bear, the Grammy-winning duo who turned a social media phenomenon into The Unofficial Bridgerton Musical Album. Their subsequent work on Disney’s Moana 2 established them as significant voices in film songwriting, while their ability to move between classical composition, pop and theatrical storytelling represents a generation less concerned with traditional artistic boundaries. Barlow also returns to Broadway in SIX this November.
Joriah Kwamé brings an equally compelling trajectory. His viral song Little Miss Perfect became the foundation for a stage musical that premiered at Olney Theatre Center in 2026. He previously collaborated with Pasek & Paul on “Top of the World” for Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile and is now working with Siedah Garrett on the Broadway-bound Polly: The Musical, with direction and choreography by Debbie Allen. His honors include a Jonathan Larson Grant and the 2026 Stephen Schwartz Award.
Canadian singer-songwriter Marie Dresselhuis approaches storytelling through a distinctive blend of gospel, classical and contemporary influences, having shared stages with artists including Jacob Collier and Jensen McRae. Oliver Richman, a 2022 NYU Tisch graduate, has taken a more unconventional route, writing more than 1,000 songs through a self-imposed daily songwriting practice. His subjects range from the wonderfully absurd to the anxieties of finding human connection in an increasingly artificial world.
Jaheem King Toombs represents another increasingly important crossover between television, film and theatrical songwriting. Having begun his career as a performer on Nickelodeon’s 100 Things to Do Before High School, he has since contributed music to Disney projects including Zombies 4 and High School Musical: The Musical: The Series. He is currently developing the stage adaptation of Zootopia with Disney Theatrical Group, alongside his original musical Oakwood.
What makes this first evening particularly appealing is the diversity of its participants. These are not five composers following an identical career path. Some emerged through social media, others through television, recording studios or traditional musical theater development. Their common denominator is an understanding that songwriting must communicate something personal, regardless of the platform on which it is first heard.
The series continues December 14 at 8 p.m. with Lin-Manuel Miranda, whose In the Heights and Hamilton transformed Broadway’s musical vocabulary while introducing new audiences to the possibilities of contemporary musical storytelling. Miranda’s ability to combine theatrical structure with hip-hop, Latin rhythms and densely layered lyricism makes him an especially fascinating figure to lead an evening devoted to artistic mentorship.
Sara Bareilles takes the stage June 21, 2027, at 8 p.m., bringing the melodic sophistication and emotional directness that made Waitress such an important addition to the contemporary musical theater canon. Her transition from successful recording artist to Broadway composer offers another perspective on how musical theater continues to expand beyond its traditional borders.
The emerging composers and additional guest performers for the Miranda and Bareilles evenings will be announced at a later date.
At its best, musical theater is a conversation between generations. Rodgers and Hammerstein did not write like the composers who preceded them. Sondheim challenged the conventions he inherited. Jonathan Larson helped open another door, and the writers who followed have continued reshaping what a musical can sound like and whose stories it can tell.
The significance of The Composer Series lies in its recognition that the next generation deserves more than applause after it has already succeeded. It deserves an opportunity to be heard while its artistic identity is still taking shape.
And for audiences, there is something irresistible about the prospect of discovering tomorrow’s Broadway composers before their names become familiar above the marquee.
Tickets for the November 30 Pasek & Paul performance go on sale to Lincoln Center Theater members Monday, November 2, at 10 a.m., and to the general public Tuesday, November 3, at 10 a.m. Tickets are available through LCT.org, by calling 212-239-6200, or at the Lincoln Center Theater box office. Ticket information for the Miranda and Bareilles performances will be announced subsequently.
The Composer Series is presented by special arrangement with Creative Partners Productions, with Lincoln Center Theater season support from Daryl Roth and American Airlines.

ONE MORE MAC ATTACK — I love Fleetwood Mac. They’ve been on the scene ever since I first gravitated to music. One show at the long-gone, much-missed Calderone Concert Hall in Hempstead, Long Island remains a major moment. Halfway through the show the power went out and they kept on playing. Just brilliant.
They’ve had a myriad of greatest hits albums; books from not only the members, but from the producers and engineers; photo arrays and now Apple+ has announced the first (really?) authorized bio-pic called The Chain – coming next year and directed by Frank Marshall no less.
“The Chain” is the only Fleetwood Mac song that all five are properly credited on. When The Mac jettisoned Lindsey Buckingham in 2018, they took a lot of heat and it does seem, with the re-release of the brilliant Buckingham- Nicks album, featuring the song “Frozen Love,” that some sort of final re-union is indeed in the works.
Heartbreaker-Mike Campbell was a solid replacement for Lindsey, but true-blue fans were still angered. For me, Buckingham lit a fire for the Mac which has never been equaled He’ll be back for sure.
btw: My favorite Buckingham composition is “Make Me A Mask.” Check it out here:
Interestingly, the track is from a Mac-compilation called The Chain.

Nobody Does It Better: Steven Reineke, Lena Hall and The New York Pops Bring James Bond to Carnegie Hall
James Bond has always understood the importance of making an entrance. Whether emerging from the shadows in a perfectly tailored tuxedo, ordering a martini, or escaping certain death with an impossibly beautiful woman at his side, 007 has spent more than six decades making danger look positively delicious. But perhaps his greatest accomplice has always been the music.
At Carnegie Hall, Steven Reineke and The New York Pops brought the unmistakable sound of James Bond front and center, joined by Tony Award winner Lena Hall for an evening of cinematic sophistication, orchestral intrigue, and enough musical seduction to make even Miss Moneypenny blush.
The genius of Bond music lies in its instantly recognizable musical vocabulary. Beginning with Monty Norman’s iconic James Bond Theme from Dr. No, and developed through the extraordinary orchestral imagination of John Barry, the franchise established a sound that has become almost as famous as its leading man. Brassy declarations, slithering chromatic lines, dissonant harmonies, dramatic strings, and that deliciously twangy electric guitar create a world in which danger and desire are perpetually intertwined.
It is music that knows precisely how to flirt with disaster.
Reineke, as Music Director and Conductor of The New York Pops, he has a particular gift for making orchestral music feel immediate, accessible, and theatrical without sacrificing its sophistication. Here, the orchestra had an opportunity to revel in the sweeping arrangements, explosive brass, and lush romanticism that have defined the Bond films for generations.
The program traveled through more than 60 years of 007 history, beginning with Norman’s legendary theme and moving into Barry’s thrilling instrumental writing for From Russia with Love, On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, and Moonraker. These selections reminded the audience that Bond music is not simply a collection of memorable title songs. It is an entire orchestral identity, one that can suggest international intrigue with a single brass phrase or impending danger through a quietly shifting harmony.
Barry’s contributions remain the musical backbone of the franchise. His compositions possess an extraordinary combination of elegance and menace. Even when the melodies are unabashedly romantic, there is an underlying tension, as though the music knows something the audience has yet to discover.
Then there was Lena Hall. The Tony Award-winning performer, celebrated for Hedwig and the Angry Inch and Kinky Boots, brought a welcome dose of theatrical glamour to the evening. Bond songs demand more than a beautiful voice. They require attitude, mystery, sensuality, and the ability to suggest an entire cinematic narrative within a few minutes. Hall’s rock-theater background made her an intriguing choice for a repertoire that moves from sultry torch songs to full-throttle pop anthems.
Her multiple costume changes added another dimension to the performance, transforming the concert into something approaching a miniature Bond revue.
The spectacular white dress worn for Barry’s Diamonds Are Forever was particularly memorable, an elegant visual complement to one of the franchise’s most deliciously extravagant songs.
The copper sequined dress in the second act brought its own shimmering sophistication. Bond has never been a franchise known for understatement, and Hall understood the assignment.
The repertoire offered a fascinating reminder of how the franchise has continually reinvented itself while remaining loyal to its musical DNA.
Marvin Hamlisch’s Nobody Does It Better, written for The Spy Who Loved Me, represents Bond at his most romantically vulnerable, its sweeping melody revealing the softer side beneath the impeccable tailoring. Paul and Linda McCartney’s Live and Let Die pushed the franchise toward rock, its explosive contrasts and shifting rhythms capturing the excitement of a changing cinematic era.
Duran Duran’s A View to a Kill brought the sleek, synthesizer-driven sound of the 1980s into Barry’s orchestral world, while License to Kill and GoldenEye continued the tradition of powerful, commanding vocal performances associated with the series.
The later selections demonstrated just how far the Bond sound has traveled. Chris Cornell’s You Know My Name from Casino Royale introduced a muscular, guitar-driven urgency suited to Daniel Craig’s more physically brutal interpretation of the character. Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell’s No Time to Die offered something altogether more intimate and haunted, while Adele’s Skyfall returned to the grand tradition of the sweeping Bond ballad, its dramatic orchestration and emotional weight recalling the golden age of the franchise.
One particularly interesting inclusion was Radiohead’s Spectre, the haunting composition the band submitted for the 2015 film but which was ultimately not used. Its presence in the program was a reminder that the musical identity of Bond is sufficiently powerful to inspire artists well beyond the franchise’s official soundtrack.
What makes these songs fascinating is not simply their individual popularity, but the musical thread connecting them. From Shirley Bassey’s glamorous vocal declarations to contemporary interpretations of heartbreak and danger, the Bond song remains a genre unto itself. Minor-key tension, unexpected harmonic shifts, orchestral grandeur, and a vocal performance that seems to conceal as much as it reveals have become its unmistakable trademarks.
Reineke’s programming allowed those connections to emerge naturally. Heard together, the songs became a musical history of changing tastes, recording styles, and cinematic personalities, all tied together by the enduring image of a secret agent who has somehow survived every cultural reinvention.
The New York Pops proved an ideal vehicle for this material. Bond scores were designed for the grandeur of a full orchestra, and Carnegie Hall offered a setting worthy of their scale. There is something immensely satisfying about hearing this music freed from the movie screen and allowed to stand on its own considerable musical merits.
Ultimately, the evening was a celebration not merely of James Bond, but of the composers, lyricists, orchestrators, and performers who helped make him immortal.
Actors come and go. Aston Martins change models. Even the martinis evolve.
But play those opening notes of the James Bond Theme, and the world knows exactly who has entered the room. Nobody does it better.
