"Three Dead Ringers for Frank, Dean & Sammy"
- Mark Ritchie - The Stage
"Each actor was perfectly cast in their individual roles and
Alacey in particular seemed to have
somehow imbibed the very essence of 'ole blue eyes' before coming on stage.
His performance was breathtaking - seriously! The tone, the modulation and the rhythm in his
voice throughout the evening was genuine Sinatra. His masculine charm was also apparent
in his pristine characterisation and it was with effortless charisma he strolled into the audience
and sang I've Got You Under My Skin while chatting and engaging with the ladies - just like the icon.
Drakeley, an endearing Dino, also hit the mark giving an authentic Italian- American edge to his accent and a firm nod to his fondness for the liquor. His vocal was smooth and enticing and when he sang Ain't That A Kick In The Head, he enchanted the audience with his easy chit-chat and laid-back vocal style.
Coleman, a former Eastenders star and an awe-inspiring Sammy Davis Jr, treated us all to a wonderfully dynamic version of The Candy Man and when he sang his voice was so smooth and
velvety it made you feel as though you could happily bathe in it for hours.
