LENNY FROM EASTENDERS JOINS THE RAT PACK TRIO Double award winning ex Eastenders star Des Coleman who played Lenny Wallace in BBCs Eastenders for 4 years has become a swinger and joined The Rat Pack Trio.
With his many West End credits which include award winning shows such as Miss Saigon, Rent and Simply Heavenly, playing Sammy Davis will be a welcomed return for Des as he is also well known for his singing and originally did workshop for the West End and National tour of Rat Pack Confidential. Des will also be involved with the production of the show as he he joins Trio boss Wayne Kennedy who portrays Dean Martin, along with Stars In Your Eyes winner Fred Gardner who plays Frank Sinatra, Jim McAllister, Tony Sullivan and the rest of the gang - for stylish fun and a drink or two ! After this years sold out USA casino dates and feature on CBS TV repeat visits are expected to follow in 2005 along with more trips planned for Europe Uniquely blending the original Vegas theme and feel with new sketches gives scope for innovation which really appealed to Des as The Rat Pack Trio refreshingly bring suave and sophistication back to the fore.
November was set aside for video editing work in the studio.From January all shows on playback will use a large video screen.Whist the use of screens on stage is nothing new for major events, For example when the song Mr Bojangles is being performed on stage Bill Bojangles Robinson will be dancing on the video screen plus information. Not just something moving in the background - that is easy and often done. We'll have relevant video, images and information in perfect sync to the tune. Hopefully this addition will help to enhance peoples enjoyment even more. Initially this will be for shows on playback only - later for live band shows Be sure you catch one of our playback gigs after the new year and see.
After a nice feature on CBS TV when we did our casino dates in the USA and then a feature on British TV regarding my crazy exploits in France it's time to move forward with an expansion of all formats of the show. Beginning in January will with have a full theatre production available. Dancing girls in true Vegas tradition will be a new feature on theatre shows
as will a fabulous guest girl singer Two big nights in Istanbul Turkey in December for theatre show dates so watch out for the festive fun as we continue to swing around the world. spreading the news about
