The Scintas Editorial Review
Overview
The Scintas family and their band give a revved-up audience the chance to laugh and sing (and even cry) with their blend of old-school Vegas humor and snazzy flair. Covering songs from Patsy Cline to the Rolling Stones, the romp is mainstream and fun, and looped the group into a five-year deal at the Rio (playing until 2006).
The Experience
It's like the Osmonds with a little Tony Soprano thrown in for color. Frank plays every instrument imaginable and does one wicked impression of Tom Jones. Older brother Joe taunts the others with impeccable timing, setting up Frank's "Whadda jerk, huh?" to an almost annoying repetition. Svelte sister Chrissi pops onstage in intervals to belt out Celine-like tunes. The Papa Scinta homage and sappy patriotic tribute has the audience practically bawling in the end, but it makes for big lines at the autograph table after the show.

Insider Tips
The Rio packs this oval theater pretty tight, so you might end up sharing a table with complete strangers. Just grab a drink and go with it.

good
The Scintas show is lots of fun. Singing and Comedy and they talk about their history. But the sister Chrissi gets way more time than she shold.
