The Rat Pack Live from Las Vegas Returns To The West End Dec 20-Jan 21

By: Jul. 28, 2011

The Olivier Award-nominated The Rat Pack Live from Las Vegas is coming back to the West End for a strictly limited five-week Christmas season, at the Wyndham's Theatre from December 20 - January 21.

The Rat Pack Live from Las Vegas will set a new West End record when it opens at its eighth West End theatre. Premiering in London at The London Palladium, it and has since played one-off dates and full seasons at The Peacock; The Theatre Royal, Haymarket; The Strand (since renamed The Novello); The Savoy (where it celebrated its 1,000th continuous West End performance); The Adelphi; and The Theatre Royal, Drury Lane.

Take a trip back in time in the company of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin &?Sammy Davis Jr to the glamorous, glitzy nights of Las Vegas in the late 1950s and early 60s. Supported by the fabulous Burrelli Sisters and The Rat Pack Big Band, you will experience Frank, Sammy & Dean as they performed at the famous Sands Hotel.

Christmas with the Rat Pack Live From Las?Vegas - which is now almost as traditional as mince pies and mulled wine - will run from 20 December to 7 January, when the show features a host of seasonal classics including Baby it's Cold Outside, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, Let it Snow, Let it Snow, White Christmas, Winter Wonderland & Auld Lang Syne alongside the unforgettable Witchcraft, Mr Bojangles, I've Got You Under My Skin, That's Amore, Everybody Loves Somebody Sometime, New York, New York, Fly Me to the Moon, Sway, Volare, Me And My Shadow, My Way, Memories Are Made Of This and many more.

Then from 9 January to 21 January, the Christmas tree and decorations will be put away for another year and audiences can enjoy the original The Rat Pack Live From Las Vegas.

The Sands Hotel was the very height of Las Vegas sophistication. It was there in 1960, during the filming of "Ocean's Eleven", when for the first time Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, Jr, Joey Bishop, and Peter Lawford performed together on stage. From then on, they were forever known as The Rat Pack. Las Vegas was their playground and everywhere else was known, in Rat Pack vocabulary, as ‘Dullsville, Ohio'. Frank, Sammy & Dean were a force to be reckoned with, an inexhaustible energy that is as apparent in their music today as it ever was. This spectacular production celebrates the incredible singing talent of three world-famous entertainers and performers and some of the finest music and song that has ever been recorded.

If you wish you'd swung with the hardest partying pack in town, now's your chance!
