Sergeant Moray Innes, to give him his full title, is currently serving in the British Army as a saxophonist and singer. Moray played in many groups in the 80’s and early 90’s but decided on a different career path in 1992 joining the British Army. He travels all over the world while serving, and it was while based in Hong Kong and while rehearsing with the Army Big Band, he discovered his undoubted talent as a Sinatra tribute. Moray has performed as Sinatra, both on military and civilian platforms, home and abroad and has played for the Royal Family on many occasions. In 2003, he saw active service in the second Gulf conflict where he also appeared as Sinatra in the desert to entertain the troops! Moray has performed sold out concerts at the Jam House, Edinburgh with his Big Band, fronting his 2 hour Salute to Sinatra Show. Moray is delighted to be back playing Frank Sinatra in Sinatra The Final Curtain and is very grateful to the British Army, as are Kingdom Theatre, for granting him permission to appear during Edinburgh Fringe 2014
Sadie Paton plays Barbara Sinatra, Franks wife.
Sadie has been performing from a very young age. Coming from a musical family there was creative music around the house all her life. She studied cello and piano and performed in an orchestra as well as solo recitals before the age of 12. She gained her love of the stage however by winning starring roles in school musical theatre productions, acting and singing have always been a major part of her life.
When Sadie moved back to Edinburgh following her Education in Berkshire she joined The Edinburgh Acting School and starred as Arabella in Ritual for Dolls at the Edinburgh Fringe to great reviews. More recently Sadie has focused on singing in the Edinburgh circuit with bands and musical tribute acts including playing Nancy Sinatra for our own Moray Innes as Frank. It was this link that tempted her to audition for the role of Barbara Sinatra whereupon she had to study this charismatic but mature lady. She made her debut as Lady Blue Eyes at the Fringe 2013 and will continue this role in 2014
