Sandy Hackett’s Rat Pack Show will arrive at The Colonial Theatre on March 24 at 8pm to "recreate one of the famous Summit at the Sands hotel shows at a time when the Rat Pack was creating hipster legend." With what's being described as "uncanny vocal recreations of hits like 'That’s Amore,' 'Fly Me to the Moon,' 'Mr. Bojangles,' and more, Sandy Hackett’s Rat Pack Show will have the audience feeling as if ol’ blue eyes were alive and singing again."

Celebrating 50 years of The Rat Pack, Sandy Hackett’s Rat Pack Show has been hailed as the next best thing to seeing the Rat Pack themselves. They were style with substance, swing with swagger and a non-stop party that everyone wanted access to. Now audiences can experience this critically acclaimed, hugely entertaining theatrical production which includes exciting new arrangements of the classic songs everyone knows and loves. In addition, audiences will hear original, never-before-heard songs written by the late, legendary songwriter, Ron Miller (“For Once In My Life”), and recorded voiceovers made exclusively for this show by Sandy Hackett’s father, the late, legendary comedian, Buddy Hackett. 

With a stellar cast, Sandy Hackett’s Rat Pack Show features performances by Sandy Hackett (Joey Bishop), a powerhouse veteran writer, producer and film & TV actor; his wife, singer/songwriter/producer and daughter of Ron Miller, Lisa Dawn Miller (Frank’s One Love); David DeCosta (Frank Sinatra); Doug Starks (Sammy Davis, Jr.); and Johnny Edwards (Dean Martin). The incomparable musical team is led by Maestro Christopher Hardin and Conductor/Pianist, Joey Singer.

Sandy Hackett's Rat Pack Show is currently performing nightly in Las Vegas at the Riviera Hotel & Casino. Receiving standing ovations nightly in Las Vegas and on tour, it is the longest running show of its kind with dozens of national and international appearances, multiple touring casts and has been seen by over 1,000,000 people. The show brings back Frank, Sammy, Joey & Dean (in their prime) to modern day along with “Frank's One Love.” The show features a comedic thread throughout, creating moments that will send audiences home with a smile on their face and memories in their hearts. The Comedy is fresh and new, allowing audiences to experience the Rat Pack as if they showed up in today’s world. The ad-libbing and improvisation take members of the audience from tears to belly laughs, making it exciting for audiences to come again and again. Relive the music, comedy and unexpected surprises of what defined cool…The Rat Pack! You never know who is going to stop by!
