    Listening to his recorded legacy‚ an incredible body of work that spans 1939 to 1994‚ there can be little doubt that Sinatra is the single greatest interpreter of American popular song-the one performer who elevated what he referred to as "saloon singing" to a high art. He had a lot of nicknames: "Chairman of the Board‚" "Ol’ Blue Eyes‚" "Frankie Boy‚" "Swoonatra" or simply "The Voice."

A fortnight ago I was honored to attend the Pantomime of the Kampala Amateur Dramatics society’s Treasure Island at the National Theatre. To purport that Robert Louis Stevenson would ever envision his riveting classic mould into an impeccable spectacle of the proverbial British humor in Uganda’s National theatre would be unfathomable ; more so with Writer Chris Carruthers seamless inclusion of new

In “Sex Trials”‚ by Laurie Stone‚ How I Learned to Drive is discussed‚ along
