Christmas with the Rat Pack - Drury Lane
Preview by Lizzie Guilfoyle
THIS Christmas, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jnr are back in town – at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane – with their seasonal offering Christmas with the Rat Pack – Live from Las Vegas.
The show, which includes songs such as Baby It’s Cold Outside, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, Let It Snow, Let It Snow, White Christmas, Winter Wonderland and Auld Lang Syne, will play a matinee and an evening performance on Sunday, December 19, 2010.
This year’s show features Stephen Triffitt, Mark Adams and George Long as Sinatra, Martin and Davis Jr, three entertainers who received critical acclaim relatively late in their careers. In fact, it wasn’t until the late 1950s and early 1960s that they stormed the world and stayed at the top. They regularly performed in Las Vegas.
Christmas with the Rat Pack, the seasonal edition of The Rat Pack – Live From Las Vegas, is presented by Paul Walden and Derek Nicol for Flying Music.
Oliver! continues at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane until January 8, 2011. It will be followed – from May 1, 2011 – by Shrek The Musical
