Wolverhampton actor Richard Shelton to bring critically-acclaimed Frank Sinatra show to Birmingham
Former Emmerdale actor Richard Shelton will swap Palm Springs for Birmingham when he brings his hit Edinburgh Festival show, Sinatra: RAW to Birmingham.
Originally from Wolverhampton, Richard was nominated for Best Actor in a Leading Role for his performance of Sinatra in Rat Pack Confidential as part of the Manchester Evening News Theatre Awards.
He has since performed for British and European royalty, with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, the BBC Concert Orchestra, for Sir Elton John, and on TV and in movies including I Capture the Castle.
Richard fulfilled another dream and moved to LA where he worked alongside Sinatra’s musicians and produced and starred in A Very Good Year, celebrating Sinatra’s centenary.
They joined him again on recording his debut US album, Lost and Found at LA’s Capitol Studios, due for release this month.
Sinatra: RAW comes to Birmingham's Old Joint Stock theatre from January 23 to 26.
