5 Shows To See In Las Vegas
Las
Vegas used to be world famous for its shows. Everybody
who was anybody in show business wanted
to play Vegas and see her or his names in the glow of the
neon lights. Everyone remember the name of the famous Rat
Pack that played the joints of Sin City and defined much
of what class and style were supposed to be. Of course,
nowadays the shows have taken a bit of a backseat to the
gambling experience, which is evidenced by the fact that
the casinos are being expanded while tickets to the shows
have become bargaining chips to bring patrons into the doors.
Of
course, this is not to say that there are not some famous
acts playing in Vegas and as a matter of fact on many a traveler’s
itinerary is the line item that states to take in one or
another of the most well known headliners. Here is a list
of the top popular shows to attend in Las Vegas:
1.
Who has not heard of the Cirque du Soleil? Tickets to their
various productions have always been coveted, and with
titles such as “O”, KA, Zumanity, and Mystere,
it is no wonder that the audiences keep coming back for more.
2.
If you are more into humor, you might enjoy Rita
Rudner.
Originally a headliner for the New York New York, she has
since moved to Harrah’s. If you like a little bit of slight
of hand, there is always the amazing duo known as Penn & Teller.
A permanent fixture at the Rio, you will enjoy a show that
has a bit of adult humor, some flying knives, ropes, as
well as ducks. What more do you need to know that this
is an explosively good time? If your humor is a bit more
of the slapstick kind, then Carrot Top might be your man.
Check out the Luxor for tickets to his show.
3.
Adult shows abound in Las Vegas. Women will enjoy the “Thunder
From Down Under” which is essentially nothing more than
a collection of rather well exercised male
specimens who will dance and move to the music at the Excalibur.
Their fame has spread and women from far and wide are coming
to see this spectacle. The men will probably appreciate
the show “Skintight” which features topless acts that dance
well choreographed acts at the Harrah’s, although there
are
plenty of other adult themed shows available as well.
4.
Magic is of course one of the biggest draws. While Penn & Teller
are more comedians than magicians, if you are in the mood
for a truly famous magical great, then you will want to
visit the Monte Carlo and its resident magician Lance Burton.
Illusionist par excellence, he does the slight of hand
better than anyone else. This is also a wonderful show
for the children! Another Vegas great is Steve Wyrick at
the Aladdin.
5.
Music and great productions are always sought after, and
Las Vegas has their fair share. Celine Dion is probably
the most famous of the all. Caesar’s Palace has
gone to great lengths to ensure that her show would be the
extravaganza it is billed to be. Considered to be a bona
fide pop diva, it is not surprising that people are anxiously
standing in line to get a glimpse of her. The Blue Man
Group is another feature show that has many raving. Their
music, performance, and amazing visual effects may be seen
at The Venetian where they are billed to perform.
As
you can see, there are so many top rated shows in Las Vegas
that it may be hard to choose. In addition to the foregoing,
it is not only the stationary
acts that present a huge draw, but also the comedians and
other performers who are adding Las Vegas to their touring
schedule that make the city’s nightlife so entertaining.
