The RAT PACK...They were the coolest cats of all
time...Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis, Jr., Dean Martin, Joey Bishop & Peter
Lawford, better known as The Rat Pack! They ruled Las Vegas and Hollywood during
the 1950's-1960's.
Today, the Rat Pack legacy continues
through their music, films, books and The Rat Pack Revue - Tribute
Show! It's the most realistic live recreation of your favorite RAT
PACK members. This REUNION is available from Mark Wood
Entertainment, Inc. for corporate events and public theatrical
performance. You won't believe your eyes and ears as Frank Sinatra,
Dean Martin and Sammy Davis, Jr. come to life in this nostalgic
revue.
The first time Nick D'Egidio (Frank
Sinatra), Allen Gregory (Sammy Davis, Jr.) and Mark Verbena (Dean
Martin) united in their own "Tribute to the Original Rat Pack" the
results were staggering. Take a look at these quotes from their
incredible reviews ...
"...The most powerful recreation to
date...", "...You're sure to find the looks, charm and charisma
that struck a chord with the world forty years ago...", "...The
three men have received worldwide recognition individually, and now,
as an electrifying trio..."
Nick D'Egidio with The Dry Martini
Orchestra
Nick D'Egidio was born and raised in
southern California by an immigrant Italian family. At a very young
age he found his love of singing and acting while working at his
father's Hollywood bakery.
He began his career in film as an actor
and later added a few credits as "director". Taking the stage as a
singer he was constantly told of how much he resembled his idol,
Frank Sinatra. Proud and humbled, he wrote Mr. Sinatra and
requested permission to perform a "tribute show" to him, permission
was granted and Nick began traveling the country as a much requested
look-and-sound-alike.
In 1990, Nick set out to create "the
ultimate Rat Pack show"'. Surrounding himself with "the best of the
best", The Rat Pack Review has earned it's credit as the premier
tribute show to Frank, Sammy and Dean.
His next step was in creating his own
band. In 1998 "The Dry Martini Orchestra" was born. The group hit
the ground running and found themselves on their first record label
with a new CD in 2002. The CD found its way into the hands of
Hollywood producers and the song "Almost Like Being in Love" was
selected and featured in the Golden Globe and Oscar nominated film
"The Cooler".
Nick spends his time writing new songs,
touring for both private and public events and promoting his
orchestra and new CD. He tirelessly donates a great deal to
charitable causes, offering his orchestra and show for many
fundraisers each year, including AIDES foundation, American Heart
Association, Susan Kohman Breast Cancer Foundation, Boys & Girls
Club, Blue Cross and many local military and public service events.
Nick D'Egidio is available with the
original "Rat Pack Review", or enjoy Nick with his Dry Martini
Orchestra! Hiring options include Nick with pianist, Nick with
3-piece orchestra, 6-piece orchestra or 17-23 - piece orchestra!
