Members Who Went Said:The show was ok and the songs were good but some of the acts were just too cheesy and over-acted. Sinatra was so obnoxious that I couldn't wait for him to get off stage and let the others have their share of the spotlight. Dean, who acted overly drunk, just look stupid although he sang the best out of all of them. Sammy was ok but he couldn't get a word in with the other 2 on stage. The surprise of the show was Marilyn. She was really great. Her humor was fantastic and she put on a great show. My advice to anyone seeing the show is not to sit neat the sound booth. There were, what I presumed, the agents, standing in the sound booth blocking the view for everyone behind them. Just to warn you, if you see a bleached frizzy haired blond and a red head with a synthetic hair piece, steer clear. These 2 had no regard for the audience. They were reading the script from the sound booth but from what I could tell, they could have easily done that from the table were sitting at before the show. The 2 of them ruined the show for many people behind them. If you like a good laugh watching over-acting impersonators, then this is the show to see. If not, save your money and rent the classic movies of these great people. This is the show where you say once is enough, and beg them not to repeat it again.
Kathleen Francis dark and lovely one I took my mother to the event. She was very familiar with the Rat Pack. We both felt that the actors/singers could have done the songs that sounded closer to the original artists. Also the elevator was not working which made it a bit difficult for my mother who uses a cane. However, the staff was very nice and helped my mother even giving her a chair to sit while I went to get the car.
Helene C. We found it very entertaining. The performers looked and sang like the Rat Pack and had a lot of fun interaction with the audience. We throroughly enjoyed the evening. |
