Sam Cooke was born to sing. His distinctive voice and movie-star looks propelled him to superstardom across audiences. First a gospel singer, he then blended spirituality and sensuality, sophistication and soul to create such hits as You Send Me, Saturday Night, A Change is Gonna Come and Twistin’ the Night Away. His tragic death at age 33 cut short his career, but his influence in the music world lives on today. This original musical tells the fascinating story of one of the most popular black singers/songwriters of all time.
