Leading man Stephen Triffitt of The Definitive Rat Pack fame on the thrill of playing Frank Sinatra for the last 16 years.
More than sixty years ago in Las Vegas, five men—Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr, Joey Bishop, and Peter Lawford—ruled supreme as The Rat Pack, with charismatic performances where they sang, boozed, and bantered from show to show, gaining notoriety everywhere they went. From the original London’s West End cast of 2003, Stephen Triffitt, with his perfectly sculpted hair, dazzling blue eyes, and black patent leather shoes, personifies cool cat Frank Sinatra to a T. Here, he talks about the late icon, personal musical favourites, and walking in the footsteps of The Rat Pack for the past 16 years.
What is the most exciting part of your job as Frank Sinatra?
Each night and performance is different. We [Mark Adams and George Daniel Long] have been working with each other for over 15 years, and we like to catch each other off-guard— just like Frank, Dean, and Sammy did. This show was created by us so we have the freedom to switch things up a little from time to time. The best ones are spontaneous, without telling each other.
What are the three songs that encapsulate the spirit of The Rat Pack?
