A Month-Long Celebration: Rat Pack takes over the Palm Desert Campus
The Palm Desert Campus had an eventful March with a month-long celebration of all things Rat Pack.
The Rat Pack was a group of popular and influential entertainers, including Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, Jr., Peter Lawford and Joey Bishop, who appeared together on stage and in films in the early 1960s, including the movies “Ocean’s 11” and “Sergeants 3.”
Several festive events took place throughout the celebration, including a private photo collection viewing from the Rat Pack era, complete with cocktails and appetizers; a movie screening and discussion of the 1960s “Ocean’s 11”; a performance titled “Marilyn, Madness & Me” with a wine reception; an award-winning Rat Pack tribute show, featuring a Vegas-based live band; and a Palm Springs celebrity home tour.
