CHRISTMAS With The Rat Pack: Live In Las Vegas is booked into York Barbican for December 17 when winter snow will meet the Sands.

This tribute show will take a trip back in time to the glamorous, glitzy nights of Las Vegas in the early 1960s, when Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr and Dean Martin would perform at the Sands hotel, joined in York by the Burrelli Sisters and The Rat Pack Big Band.

It was in 1960, during the filming of Ocean's 11, that Sinatra, Martin, Davis Jr, Joey Bishop and Peter Lawford performed together on stage for the first time. From then on, they were known forever as the Rat Pack; Las Vegas was their playground and everywhere else was known, in Rat Pack vocabulary, as "Dullsville, Ohio".

Christmas With The Rat Pack: Live In Las Vegas recalls the days of Witchcraft, The Lady Is A Tramp, Mr Bojangles, I’ve Got You Under My Skin, That’s Amore, New York, New York, My Kinda Town, Fly Me To The Moon, Sway, Volare, Me And My Shadow, My Way and Memories Are Made Of This, bolstered with winter festive favourites too. Baby, It’s Cold Outside, Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer, Let it Snow, Let it Snow, White Christmas, Winter Wonderland and Auld Lang Syne all will add a dusting of white powder.

Tickets for the 7.30pm show are on sale at £18 to £27.50 on 0844 854 2757, at yorkbarbican.co.uk or in person at the box office, open 10am to 2pm, Monday to Friday.
