Rat Pack Showtime

Rat Pack Showtime comes to Bibis Italianissimo Restaurant & Cocktail Bar on Tuesday 22nd December, a tribute to Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. The show is staged by stars of the West End production The Rat Pack, Live From Las Vegas, and it's fully choreographed, built around three singers, timed comedy and the sort of camaraderie that worked for the original trio. The set list pulls from the songs they're best known for: 'Fly Me To The Moon', 'Mr Bojangles', 'That's Amore', 'New York, New York' and 'My Way'.

Bibis Italianissimo is a family-owned Italian restaurant and cocktail bar in Leeds city centre, on Criterion Place (LS1 4AG). It's been running since 1974, and its stage comes alive every couple of weeks with live bands and tribute acts, so this fits right into what they do. The show runs twice in one day, so you can pick a matinee or an evening slot. For the matinee, booking is at 12:30pm with the show starting at 2:30pm; for the evening, booking is at 6:30pm with the show starting at 8:00pm.

Tickets are £22, and there's a Festive Menu to go with it — a set three-course meal at £40 or £45 per person. If you're heading in for the matinee, you'll be sitting down for lunch before the show; in the evening, it's dinner first. Between the food and the music, it's a full afternoon or evening out in the city centre, rather than just a quick trip for a show.
