SLIPPERY ROCK, Pa. - Slippery Rock University's Performing Arts Series continues with "A Swingin' Holiday Affair starring Steve Lippia" at 7:30 p.m., Nov. 17 in the Smith Student Center Ballroom.

Lippia will be accompanied by the SRU Jazz Ensemble as he performs a set list of some of the most well-known and beloved songs recorded or performed by Frank Sinatra.

Lippia has become one of the most prominent, in-demand vocalists and has quickly established his place among the finest interpreters of "standards" and traditional pop music in the nation. His youthful, energetic talent and powerful show creates a perfect blend of "classic" with "today" and introduces a new generation to this timeless music while appealing to long-time listeners.

He has headlined highly successful, extended engagements at The Rio All Suite Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas as well as performing in multiple engagements in Atlantic City.

This return engagement to SRU will also feature a blend of jazz and swing standards and Christmastime songs as Lippia is accompanied by the SRU Jazz Ensemble, under the direction of Jason Kush.

General admission tickets for the performance are $22 for adults; $20 for seniors (62 and older); $18 for youth (17 and younger); and $8 for SRU students.
