Ella and Her Fella Frank
By Bo Wilson
Based on a concept by Randy Strawderman
Jul 9 – Sept 12
Inspired by the late Randy Strawderman’s 1999 hit musical of the same name, Ella and Her Fella Frank invites you to a heavenly concert with Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra, played by Virginia Rep favorites Desirée Roots and Scott Wichmann. This inspiring new musical by Bo Wilson celebrates the enduring magic of music and live theatre as we pay tribute to Ella, Frank, and Randy.
Featuring the music of Cole Porter, Duke Ellington, Irving Berlin, George Gershwin and other titans of the Great American Songbook, this show runs from July 9 – Sept 12, 2021 with weekend matinees and evening performances Thursdays through Saturdays.
“Ella and Her Fella Frank is a classy and sparkly, feel-good, life-affirming show that is exactly what we need as we come back to our theatre to experience live music and storytelling! With over 28 beloved songs, you are sure to hear one of your favorites,” said Managing Director Phil Whiteway.
