WHAT THE PAPERS SAY Time to order a whiskey, straight up, because the ice might melt, it's that hot... James Sims, BroadwayWorld.com | Full review The Rat Pack swings again... a glossy, affable re-creation of those celebrated concerts Charlotte Stoudt, Los Angeles Times | Full review Don't miss this effervescent musical revue that makes the Sixties swing once again. Robert W. McDowell, Raleigh Triangle Theater | Full review One is struck by the physical resemblance, the vocal technique and the sheer mastering of mimicry of the performers. Frank Rizzo, Variety | Full review Praise for Stephen Triffitt  As Sinatra, Triffitt’s strength is in his faithful re-creation of Old Blue Eyes’ mannerisms, voice and phrasing. Close your eyes, and you’d swear you’re listening to the original.Alice T. Carter, Pittsburgh Tribune-Review In the end, it’s Sinatra’s show to make or break, and Triffitt doesn’t disappoint. He just keeps getting better as the evening goes on. Jay Reiner, The Hollywood Reporter Stephen Triffitt embodies Sinatra’s assurance of craft and style, and his resemblance is uncanny. Having made a career playing Sinatra, Triffitt nails the phrasing, timing and tone with utter confidence. Frank Rizzo, Variety  Praise for David HayesDavid Hayes is a bundle of talent and energy as the irrepressible Davis. His “Mr. Bojangles” and “What Kind of Fool Am I?” are impressive. It can’t be easy trying to capture Davis’ gritty authenticity or that overflowing entertainer’s heart that always seemed on the verge of bursting from the sheer pleasure of performance. Jay Reiner, The Hollywood Reporter As Sammy Davis Jr., David Hayes has a coiled, rabbitlike energy, a light-hearted stage presence and the physical nimbleness and dancing chops of the diminutive entertainer. His performance of “Mr. Bojangles” is a first-act highlight. Pam Kragen, North County Times  Praise for Nigel CaseyNigel Casey’s performance as Dean Martin is so startlingly life-like, you’ll swear Dino’s been resurrected onstage. Pam Kragen, North County Times Nigel Casey nicely evokes without cloning Martin’s look, sound and manner. With his eyebrows at a permanent arch, he glides effortlessly through Martin’s repertoire of less demanding songs with carefully mannered casualness. Frank Rizzo, Variety |
