Meet the performers: Song for Swingin' Lovers

Created by Amelia Homes and Lachlan Graham, Song for Swingin’ Lovers! is a memoir of love, lust and regret set to Frank Sinatra’s title album and illustrated through song and dance.

Songs for Swingin’ Lovers! was originally created in 2018 for The Cabaret Showcase and returned to Chapel Off Chapel later that year for a further season. Together with John Reed (West Side Story, Jesus Christ Superstar), Emma Russell (The Wizard of OZ, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) and Tom New (West Side Story, Chicago) the show explores the ‘concept’ that lives within the album. This special reprise for the Firehouse Theatre is a 10 minute excerpt of the show.
