Shows in Las Vegas
Monty Python’s Spamalot
If you’re a Monty Python fan, you probably would have done anything to get those Broadway tickets ñ too bad they sold out so quickly. But is going to Vegas’ version of Spamalot worth the price of admission? You bet. Sure, the show’s been trimmed down to fit into Vegas’ neat little 90 minute show [...]
Mystere Cirque du Soleil
With so many Cirque du Soleil shows on the Vegas strip, it’s easy to get them confused and to begin to wonder if the shows are actually as good as they say they are. In the case of Mystere, this show is everything it says it is ñ and more. But the biggest problem lies [...]
The Producers
While the Broadway version of The Producers was a stunning success, the Vegas version needs to be trimmed down in order to make it work for the tourists ñ so, keep that in mind if you’ve already seem Matthew Broderick and Nathan Lane tackle this Mel Brooks’ classic. This story about two down on their [...]
Mamma Mia!
If you’re looking for a Broadway sort of experience, Mamma Mia! is the show you need to see. The elaborate sets and bold singing take you to the great white way where acting and singing are one. The use of ABBA songs in this show doesn’t seem to be the right fit for a show [...]
O, Theater
Consistently ranked one of the best shows on the Vegas strip, the Cirque du Soleil’s ‘O’ is an amazing spectacle for the senses. Named for the French word for water (‘eau’), this stage show is performed at the Bellagio over a 1.5 million gallon pool of water. The acrobatics that go into this show are [...]
Criss Angel’s Mindfreak
While Criss Angel may have been the subject matter of tabloids in the past few months, it seems that his true talents lie in capturing the attention of the audience and not letting it go ñ as evidenced in his magical show Mindfreak. Arriving in the summer of 2008, Angel’s show promises breathtaking visual effects [...]
David Copperfield
If you’re the type that prefers entertainment to showiness, perhaps something that will amaze you and astound you, you might want to finally see what David Copperfield does. Well, let’s admit the truth: he is showy. But with his amazing magical setups and spectacles, you’ll feel as though you’re somehow changed after seeing what he [...]
KA – Cirque du Soleil
If you’ve never gotten a chance to see a Cirque du Soleil show, you need to make it a special point to see one when you’re in Vegas. These amazingly choreographed shows are visually intense, making your brain swim and your mind exhausted by the end. There are several different Cirque du Soleil shows on [...]
Elton John in the Red Piano
With his charm and piano prowess, Elton John is now playing at Caesar’s Palace within the luxurious Colosseum. For an hour and a half, you get to listen to the tunes of Elton John, his witty banter, and dexterous fingering of the piano. In the background of the show are gorgeous videos and other props, [...]
Phantom: The Las Vegas Spectacular
While Broadway fans will be outraged at the generous trimming away of this Andrew Lloyd Webber classic (the Vegas version is only 90 minutes), the special effects and the backdrop of a $40 million stage setting are enough to keep them content with the outcome. From the costumes to the action, the music and the [...]
Blue Man Group
While the Blue Man Group act doesn’t really fit in with the Vegas style, it still offers plenty of entertainment and laughs for the audience. The skits that these very blue actors perform don’t always make chronological sense, but they’re funny in their own unique and memorable ways ñ and indescribable unless you’ve actually seen [...]
Carrot Top
The crazy red headed performer that can turning any ‘thing’ into a joke is on the Vegas strip and making people laugh out loud. Carrot Top combines a rapid fire delivery of jokes along with a seemingly endless box of props with which to make his point (that is, if he has one). While often [...]
Zumanity – Cirque du Soleil
When in Vegas, why not see something a little risque and dramatic? Zumanity is one of the most in your face shows on the strip in Vegas; promoting the sexual content of the show from the start with ushers wearing costumes that make them appear naked. And that’s just the beginning. Performers in the show [...]
La Reve
Based on a painting that Steve Wynn owns, La Reve is certainly a part of the Vegas flavor and scene. The overdone pageantry is certainly going to be compared to the flamboyance of Cirque du Soleil, but this water based show is not nearly as impressive. While you’ll still get the lithe and mysterious performers, [...]
Crazy Horse
When you’re looking for a little nudity in Vegas, you don’t have to go further than MGM Grand. At Crazy Horse, women with perfect figures will dance around topless and nearly bottomless while erotic musical choices are played and an intricate light show is shown. The women play out a sort of homage to beautiful [...]
Tangerine
If you don’t want to spend any additional money to see some burlesque dancing, you should head over to Tangerine at TI (Treasure Island). This mod style show offers dancers on top of bar counters with the ever so campy Sirens at TI show for the background. You can choose to sit inside the club [...]
Danny Gans
Over at the Mirage, you might want to see if you can catch the Danny Gans: The Man of Many Voices show. With over 400 voices in his talent arsenal, you can easily find yourself amused and amazed within the span of a few minutes. Though not all of his impressions are dead on, the [...]
Love – Cirque du Soleil
Based on the music and the lives of the Beatles, the Love production from Cirque du Soleil is quite a spectacle and might not sit well with those bigger fans of the Fab Four. The music has been changed up quite a bit, and the overall staging of the show doesn’t really have a plot [...]
Bette Midler
As 2008 began, so did Bette Midler’s run in Caesar’s Palace. Taking up the space that Celine Dion did for so many years, Bette is bringing in the bawdy in this classic Vegas show. From jokes to storytelling, singing and dancing, Bette performs beautifully and anyone who sees it will feel like they’ve seen a [...]
