Led by the legendary trumpeter Jim Manley, the "Wild, Cool & Swingin’ Orchestra" takes over the stage on April 25th to resurrect the high-octane energy of 1960s Las Vegas. Manley, a St. Louis jazz icon renowned for his explosive "stratospheric" range, fronts this high-speed tribute to the golden era of the Rat Pack and the Sands Hotel. Backed by a powerhouse four-piece horn section and a driving rhythm section, Manley’s arrangements push the ensemble to exhilarating heights, ensuring a night of raw musical fire.

Joining Manley are the dynamic vocal powerhouses Arvell Keithley and Leslie Craig, who breathe new life into the hits that once defined the Vegas Strip. Together, this elite group blends vintage class with modern intensity, creating a performance that is as sophisticated as it is wild. If you are looking for an unforgettable evening of swing and soul, make sure to mark your calendar for this show at the Strauss Black Box Theatre—it is a "Wild, Cool & Swingin’" experience you won’t want to miss.
