We were in the front, great seats. Dean came down off stage, kissed my hand and melted my heart. The Sinatra guy had everyone singing NYNY. It was amazing. Sammy was good too! Great band. Wish I could have taken mom. You'll have a good time! More

Ring a ding great time. Vegas before the corporate takeover! Bought our tix on the web, showed up early to gettgood seats. Met the Maitre'd, greased his palm, came back 5 minutes before the show started and were led down front. Great band. Real musicians. Joey warmed everyone up. Dean(this guys got to be related to Dino) took my wife's... More

Frank was pretty good, Dean Martin was very good, Sammy Davis was good, but not dead on, and Joey Bishop was a total miss. Set up like a supper club, it was a bit shopworn, and not very attractive. There are better choices to see. More

Reasonable talent lost in a cavernous, mostly empty room. We really enjoyed the "Marilyn Monroe" interlude but have seen better takes elsewhere. More

On my 50th Birthday Girlie's Do Vegas trip we went to see this show. It was brilliant. The guys were fantastic. If you closed your eyes you would have thought it was the original singers. And I must say they really did resemble them. The music was great, as was the comedy - which we were not expecting. My only... More

We really enjoyed watching the Rat Pack, in the old style theatre at the Rio. The audience warmed up quickly to the jokes from Joey and songs from Dean Martin. By the time Frank and Sammy came on we were singing along. I've always loved the songs of the rat pack and I was not disappointed, the cast and band... More

This is a tribute show which attempts to recreate the mood of the Rat Pack. As a result it has both sexist and racist overtones as was the reality in the 60s and 70s. The cast is talented - I particularly enjoyed the actor who played Dean Martin. We did not pay full price for the show - I probably... More

Attended this show this week and must admit it was marginal at best. While the performers have quite a bit of talent they just spent too much time "goofing around" rather than singing. This coupled with the badly worn Rio did not make for a very good value. IF the performers would do what they do best, and sing more,... More

Was really looking forward to some old magic. Unfortunatley no magic the theatre was half empty no atmosphere. The boys singing was all over the place. The only saving grace was Joey Bishop's jokes first class. Frankie could sing but the rest were a waste of time definately one to miss !!!! More

We were not super happy to move to the Rio as it is not on the strip, but finally liked our escapade. The show was really putting in the cabaret atmosphere, with very well interpreted songs, very similar to the orginal, from voice to attitude. The dirty jokes and full big band were also good contributions. More
