The Rat Pack Is Back at Jorgensen Cabaret 4/16, 4/17

The Rat Pack Is Back at Jorgensen Cabaret Fri & Sat, Apr 16 & 17, 2010, 8 pm. Doors open at 7 pm. What happens in Vegas...all started with The Rat Pack. Their 1960s style and swagger come to Storrs when Jorgensen brings The Rat Pack Is Back! to the Cabaret at 8 pm, Friday and Saturday, April 16 and 17. This spirited show recreates one of the famous "Summit at the Sands" nights when a swingin', ring-a-ding group known as The Rat Pack was creating hipster legend with a free-wheeling, no-holds-barred nightclub act starring Vegas' four favorite sons: Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis, Jr., Dean Martin and Joey Bishop.

Produced by Dick Feeney, The Rat Pack Is Back! features uncanny vocal recreations, unbridled humor, and a hot, live 12-piece orchestra that sends audiences straight back to the coolest time in history. Hits include "That's Amore," "My Way," "Mr. Bojangles," and many more. See why the Las Vegas Sun writes, "This is as close as anyone has come to capturing the feeling of the real thing," and the Chicago Tribune raves, "Classic comic material. Excellent!"

This smooth, classy, adult entertainment is live on stage at Jorgensen Cabaret, located at 2132 Hillside Rd. on the UConn campus in Storrs. There's nothing like it for sheer enjoyment and relaxation, with light dinner fare and dessert ($3-$10; cash bar), and the best entertainment around in a cozy, candlelit nightclub setting, with tables on the floor. Doors open at 7 pm. Tickets are $34, $38 and $45. For information, call the Box Office, Monday through Friday, 11 am to 5 pm, at 860.486.4226, or order online at jorgensen.uconn.edu. Free, convenient parking is available across the street in the North Garage.
