What Does A Rat Pack Tribute Show Consist Of?
October 13, 2009
What makes up a Rat Pack tribute show? The general idea behind a Rat Pack tribute is to relive the magic that the original group had given us through a recreation of their antics, dialogues, personas and, most notably, their music.
Whenever you are watching a tribute, you can expect the new version to have elements that mirror the original one, however there are some tribute shows that mix their own take with the old and still stay appealing.
A Rat Pack show consists of a relatively simple set up. There are no huge sets, special effects, large casts, dancing girls, fancy costumes or special lighting. All they require are three stools, three glasses and a sound system. A follow spot is optional. They bring their own tuxedos and music.
This simple stage set-up enables them to perform in a variety of locations without a lot of fanfare, or an expensive stage set or crew. It also makes travel very easy.
The show is very adaptable, and can run anywhere from a 20 minute feature at an event, to a 90 minute concert style show. Art Poco, the producer of The Rat Pack Now, is very flexible and can make any last-minute changes seem invisible to the audience. The relaxed nature of the original Rat Pack shows allow for funny, offbeat humor and even unplanned occurances can be improvised into the show, seamlessly.
The size of the cast can also be broken down into solo, duo, or full trio configurations. For example, Frank and Dean are a popular duo performance, though Frank Sinatra is the most popular single performer requested. Each performer has enough repertoire and talent to pull off a solo show.
The Rat Pack tribute show should be flexible in that they can adapt their performance style to fit different age groups or audience types. One reason why The Rat Pack Now is in such high demand is because they can easily tailor their performance to the audience they are hired to entertain, be it a corporate crowd, concert, or nightclub setting.
Another element that may be modified in a Rat Pack tribute show is the music. While there are certain signature songs that would be missed in a Rat Pack show, there are some numbers that can be swapped out for others. Classic songs that are mainstays in the show would be “New York, New York”, “Everybody Loves Somebody” and “Candy Man.”
In addition to the actual performance, The Rat Pack Now performers can also do a pre-show “meet and greet” with show attendees, as well as pose for photos with the guests after a performance for corporate and charity events.
Audience participation is always a highlight of the show from the participants perspective, as well as the general audience. In addition to the characters and verbal interplay with the audience, the most popular part of the grand finale is when several audience members come up to the stage to do a kick line to “New York, New York.”
In short, you can tailor-fit a Rat Pack tribute show according to your target audience and venue size. The Rat Pack Now can be counted on to deliver an exciting, fun and nostalgic performance that will win over crowds of all ages.
