Get your sharkskin jacket pressed, break out the Pomade, pallie, and start spreading the news: Frank, Sammy, Joey and Dean are crooning tunes and cracking wise in "The Rat Pack is Back" at The Gem Theatre in Detroit for a limited run.
This show is a fast-paced theatrical musical play based on a night at the Sands Hotel in Las Vegas, circa 1961. The actors in this show have studied the performers they are portraying and re-create them as you might have seen them years ago when they worked together in the Copa Room.
Shows are at 8 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays and at 7 p.m. Sundays. Matinees are at 2 p.m. Thursdays and Sundays and at 3 p.m. Saturdays.
Tickets are on sale at The Gem Theatre box office. Call 1-313-963-9800. Tickets also are available through Ticketmaster outlets.
