4-30-2022
Carol O'Shaughnessy's The Rat Pack & Me is a musical play conceived & directed by Jack Neary with musical director/arranger Tom LaMark and the Tom LaMark Orchestra.
Using a tight script written by Jack Neary, Carol confides in the audience about her youthful brush with the famous members of the Rat Pack at the Sands Hotel in 1960. In between confidences, she weaves songs made famous by Frank, Sammy and Dean. Accompanied by the remarkable 7-piece Tom LaMark Orchestra with a full horn and reed section, Carol is in full swing with songs like “Ring a Ding Ding,” “Just Once in a Lifetime,” “You Make Me Feel So Young,” “One for My Baby,” “Mr. Bojangles,” “The Hungry Years,” a and many more. And of course everyone will love singing along to “Everybody Loves Somebody Sometime.”
"O'Shaughnessy's songs have you laughing, swinging or crying real tears because, and only because, when she sings you are hearing the truth." - John Amodeo, Edge Media Network, Boston
