Christmas with The Rat Pack - Live at The Sands is an entertaining, nostalgic show that will put anyone in the holiday spirit. Actors bring to life Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Sammy Davis Jr. with a big band backing them and sing the songs that they are known for as well as holiday favorites, which make the audience feel like they are back in Sands Hotel in Las Vegas seeing The Rat Pack perform in the 1960s.
Main Street Theater is offering Houstonians an unparalleled delight with their production of Martha Gellhorn and Virginia Cowles' play LOVE GOES TO PRESS. The play found success in London in 1946 and then moved across the pond to New York in 1947. It opened January 1 and closed on January 4. The play was not touched again in the United States until earlier in 2012 when the Mint Theater revived it. With a strong and talented cast and crew, Main Street Theater is presenting the Regional Premiere of the mad cap, romantic, and charmingly feminist comedy, running now through December 23, 2012.
Main Street Theater introduces Houston to this delightful play which has only been produced twice before in the U.S.: once in New York in 1947 and once in New York earlier in 2012. "I am so glad that the Gellhorn and Cowles Estates granted us the rights for this prodcuction," says Rebecca Greene Udden, Main Street Theater's Executive Artistic Director. "This play is just so much fun."

A good cover band faces the challenge of living up to its audience's expectations every time they play a number that somebody else wrote and performed. But, no one can realistically expect even the best cover band to hit the mark every time. That's what makes Christmas with the Rat Pack-Live at the Sands interesting in the same way that Rain or the Australian Pink Floyd are. In each case there's a focus on a particular sound, but the Rat Pack may be the hardest to actually replicate. It was a frozen moment in time when Sammy, Frank and Dean came together to strut their stuff, usually accompanied by the comic routines of Joey Bishop. The current show playing the Fox Theatre imagines the Rat Pack (sans Bishop) performing a Christmas show, and it's complete with all the banter and manic antics one would expect.
Fox Associates offers you the chance to beat the winter blues with CHRISTMAS WITH THE RAT PACK - LIVE AT THE SANDS, especially created to heat things up for the coolest kind of holiday cheer.
