David Alacey's Rat Pack Is Back!

» Profile

The hit show 'The Rat Pack is Back' perfectly captures not only the wonderful music and comedy of the original legends, but also the remarkable personalities of the stars who truly ruled the entertainment world. The Rat Pack is Back is now Britain's longest running tribute to Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jnr. In 2004 the guys were honoured to perform for HRH The Princess Royal at a Royal Command Performance and recently appeared in front of 35,000 people with their Big Band as part of the VE Day celebrations.

David Alaceys outstanding production The Rat Pack Is Back accurately recreates the legendary performances of the pre-eminent entertainers of their time, together on stage and features Britain's best tributes to the fabulous originals. They can be backed on playback (Fantastic backing tracks recorded with a swinging live big band) or by the swinging Don Hunt band. Mr Hunt has also served as Bruce Forsyths musical director for over thirty years and during an amazing career has held the same role for the likes of Anthony Newley, Bing Crosby and even the real Sammy Davis Jnr. Many sizes of band are available, from a quartet to a 20 piece orchestra, and you have the option to choose the band appropriate for your event.

The Rat Pack Is Back includes all of the hit songs made popular by the legendary performers such as "Aint That A Kick In The Head", "The Lady Is A Tramp", "My Way", "Mr Bojangles" and of course, New York New York. These are performed with Amazing Accuracy and to achieve this the producers found the very best tribute artists for the roles of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jnr. These guys not only sing like their heroes, they physically resemble them on stage, share their unique mannerisms and even talk like they are at the Sands taking part in the summit.

David Alacey who also devised the show, plays Frank Sinatra and after working with the Vegas Legend - Buddy Greco, Buddy was moved to say that "This Guy Really is Sinatra" - quite a complement! but even this did not come close to to the comment by Frank's daughter who said that David's recording of "New York New York" with a 35 piece orchestra for a new Atari PC game was "too close to my fathers recording" It really doesn't get better than that!

Des who plays Sammy Davis Jnr, was seen by millions for four years as Lenny in Eastenders for the BBC and can now be seen working as a presenter for "The One Show" again for The BBC and Paul who like his hero is also Italian, was a "BBC Musician Of The Year Finalist" and since then has worked all over the world as Dino with his own Big Band.

However, it is not just the three principle characters that make the show such a success. There is also a larger cast available for the full Ratpack Vegas Experience. Even more glamour is added to the show when the likes of Judy Garland, Barbra Streisand or Nancy Sinatra join Frank and the gang on stage

So Don't miss out on the chance to join the Kings of Cool with their fabulous Big Band and special guests and The Vegas Showgirls for a unique night - Vegas style!

David Alacey's Rat Pack Is Back! has just been voted the Number 1 Rat Pack tribute in the UK at The National Tribute Awards as voted by The Agents Association of Great Britain.
