Swing into the Christmas season with The Rat Pack and their famous Christmas Concert.The Official UK No.1 tribute show, as voted by The Agents’ Association of Great Britain for three successive years, arrives direct from London’s Leicester Square Theatre, The O2, and a Royal Command Performance.
The acclaimed David Alacey (Lovejoy & Inspector Alleyn) stars as Frank Sinatra, alongside West End favourite Tim Harwood as Dean Martin. They are joined by former Coronation Street and Hollyoaks star Ashley Campbell as Sammy Davis Jnr in the original Rat Pack show, now celebrating its 25th record-breaking year.
Together, they amaze audiences with their recreation of a vintage Christmas at The Sands, featuring Sinatra, Martin and Davis in this sensational show that brings the style, glamour and excitement of the Las Vegas heyday vividly to life. Including all the great hits – My Way, Mr Bojangles, New York, New York, Amore, Fly Me to the Moon – and seasonal classics such as Winter Wonderland, Let It Snow and, of course, White Christmas.
This yuletide treat for all the family also features the fabulous Buddy Greco All-Stars, under the direction of BBC Musical Director Mac Shone at the piano. Buddy Greco, who was a member of the real Pack in Vegas and a friend of Marilyn Monroe (having spent the famous last weekend at Lake Tahoe with Sinatra and Marilyn), gave the show his seal of approval, saying:
“These guys are as close as anyone will ever get to my dear friends – it was just like being back at The Sands.”
He also adds an authentic touch of Rat Pack style to the show by making a specially recorded guest appearance.
Just as Frank, Dean and Sammy were joined on stage at The Sands by surprise special guests, that element of theatrical magic is recreated in this show with appearances from the likes of Marilyn Monroe, Nancy Sinatra and Liza Minnelli, adding even more glamour to this glitzy production.
Magical Christmas memories really are made of this!
