This new spectacular production celebrates the incredible singing talents of three world famous entertainers Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jnr, known as the Rat Pack.

It is a sensational tribute to the unique musical contribution that these performers made to 20th century popular music. Dean, Frank, and Sammy all received critical acclaim throughout the 50’s and 60’s; a force to be reckoned with, they had an inexhaustible energy which is recreated in this enigmatic and authentic stage production.

With a talented cast and 15 piece orchestra, the audience can feel a part of musical history as they are taken back to the glamorous glitzy spectacle that brings the lives of these legendary performers together again.

After an incredibly popular opening run at the theatre Royal Haymarket, this production is now being performed widely throughout Europe and America. Individual performances are spookily accurate, as the stars belt out renditions of the biggest hits including ‘Mr Bojangles’, Candy Man’, ‘Amore’, ‘Volare’ and Dean’s own little signature piece ‘Little old wine Drinker Me’.

The typical Vegas informality is incorporated convincingly into the show, as in Act 2, when the famous drinks cart is brought on stage, and the witty banter between the three is delivered naturally between songs.

The attention to detail is impressive, from Dean’s famous slurring, Sammy’s ever so tight silk trousers, to the incredibly long microphone leads that are draped all over the stage. It is the recreation of the era as well as the legendary classic numbers that makes this production truly timeless.
