Frank Loman 'Stories'

Event Has Passed

Last Show: Tuesday 10 th July 2018

The Pheasantry (Chelsea)

Following the recent success of 'My Eurovision' at the Pheasantry in April, here is Frank’s next show called 'Stories'. 
Full of narrative songs like Sondheim’s ‘I Never Do Anything Twice’ & ‘I Remember’, ABBA’s ‘The Day Before You Came’, ‘Pity the Child’ from Chess, Andrew Lippa’s ‘Love Somebody Now’ or a song from Wicked (we let you guess which one and no, it’s not ‘Defying Gravity’ or ‘Popular’!) the narrative theme of this show doesn’t end there. 
Interwoven are anecdotes from Franks life like growing up in an unmentionably boring town in Germany and coming out - life, failure, lust & love and an interesting interaction with a PE teacher at the age of 15! 
With Ricardo Nunes Fernandes back on the Steinway and Sarah Lebrecht lending a helping hand with the Viola the evening promises to be a page turner of entertainment!

"The voice of an angel, superb English diction, and extraordinary acting talent."
Joe Regan Jr. (Times Square Chronicles)

"Frank Loman doesn’t just sing songs, he inhabits them - with a passion so strong that they could have been written for and about him. He covers such classics as “Merci Cherie”, Austria’s 1966 Eurovision Song Contest winner, proving that his range and versatility is as powerful as his voice and as engaging as his innate charm."
Joe Crystal (Remotegoat)
