Save some room on your social calendar, because, like 2005, these cool shows are expiring around January 1. Besides, if you’re feeling a little Grinch-like, there’s nothing like a holiday show to get you in a festive mood.
at Post Street Theatre
The Tribute has been rockin' audiences on Post Street since July, but, like all good ongoing shows, it's developed a holiday theme--meaning, it's stuck in a few holiday songs and merriment. The revue re-creates a 1960s night at the Sands Hotel in Las Vegas, where the Rat Pack performed at night after spending the day filming Ocean's Eleven, and features such classics as "Come Fly with Me," "That's Amore" and "Mr. Bojangles," all backed by a live, 10-piece orchestra. Apparently, the show is so realistic that it also retained some of those politically incorrect jokes of the time. We're just warning you. But in all, The Tribute is a freewheeling and hip holiday show.
