Loading Events

Was Frank Sinatra involved in the world’s biggest crime syndicate or not? Ex Scotland-Yard detective Brian Greenan will present the facts and help you make your mind up!

In this gripping talk, Brian will take you deep into the underworld, exploring how the mafia took root in America from the 1860s onwards. He’ll reveal how Sinatra, growing up in Hoboken, New Jersey – home to the most powerful mafia family in the U.S. was exposed to mob activities from an early age. And, of course, there’s the infamous story of how the mafia allegedly rescued Sinatra’s career by freeing him from a tough contract with the Tommy Dorsey band – but is it true? Was Ol’ Blue Eyes really connected to the mob, or just caught up in the rumours? Join us and uncover the truth on Friday 14th March.

Doors open at 1.30pm, talk starts at 2pm and finishes at 3.30pm.

Tickets are £12 each including tea and cake.
