Sunday marks
a special reunion at Brooklyn Center for the Performing Arts
– it’s Frank, Sammy and Dean together again!
Set in the Las Vegas Sands Hotel, circa 1961, "The Rat Pack
Encore!," a retro comedy and musical tribute, celebrates
the music and lives of the legendary Rat Pack, pictured at left
with fellow ’Packer Peter Lawford in a scene from "Ocean’s
11."
Performed by a cast of three actor-comedians – Michael Levin
(Frank Sinatra), Paul Rick Michel (Dean Martin) and Doug Starks
(Sammy Davis Jr.) – and a mini-orchestra, the "Rat Pack
Encore!," directed by Levin, recreates this celebrated nightclub
act with songs like "You’re Nobody Till Somebody Loves You"
and "The Best Is Yet To Come."
"The Rat Pack Encore!" will be performed at Brooklyn
College’s Whitman Theatre on April 25 at 2 pm. Tickets are $40.
The theater is located at Hillel Place and Campus Road, one block
from the junction of Flatbush and Nostrand avenues. For tickets
