| - So I actually heard about this show watching Ride, with Norman Reedus on AMC. (For anyone that doesn't know, he is the actor that portrays Daryl Dixon on The Walking Dead...a zomie show). I thought it looked pretty cool. So fast forward a month or so and my man gets sent to Vegas on a work trip...who gets to tag along...pick me pick me. I told him right away, I wanted to see this show.
So, I get tickets to the show and a dinner package (dinner was horrible, at a different venue...ugh) through LasVegas.com. I should have just bought the tickets directly from the theatre and will in the future. Advice, just buy your tickets directly from The V Theatre! Anyhew...the show is in a mall/casino type place and is surrounded by stores and restaurants and a casino or two. (Funny, by the pics I saw I thought it was an outside entrance, but it was just some clouds painted on the ceiling. hahaha. I know, I am a dork, whatever). We went up to the counter, got the tickets very quickly and finished our afternoon. Time to go to the show...we were ushered to an upstairs bar/lounge to wait for seating. Nice little place to sit and wait, beats standing in line any day! Got a couple of drinks, very friendly (and easy on the eyes) male bartender. Then we were seated. Cute smaller venue, somewhat set up like a movie theatre. I liked it right away. Our seats were actually front row, so we could see everything. Show starts. Love...love...love, absolutely freaked out that we have a real live band performing the music. That is awesome...and a rarity anymore...so kudos to the producer. The MC was very funny. One liners and jokes had me laughing my chunky butt off the entire time. It was hilarious. More of a comedy than burlesque in my opinion, but that is me. I mean, they get darn near naked...so expect that, but more funny naked.
Mikey...I wanted to take him home with me. "yyyyhhheeessssss"....ahahahah Too cute. The dancers were very good. Obviously trained in more than a few styles. Unlike Brittany around the corner, the ladies and gentleman actually sang their own songs and did a wonderful job of doing so. The costumes were cute and the sets, though small scale and not elaborate told the story and were fun to look at.
There was a couples game show based on the Newlywed Game. Adorable. Audience participation is always a blast.
Servers came around and got drink orders if you would like drinks. There were free jello shots sent out. Always fun. The MC really did a great job of keeping everyone entertained not only with his own performances but while the different scenes were setting up. Great job.
My very very vanilla boyfriend even liked it. I mean soft serve boy here. That is a good sign.
It was a quirky, silly, sexy, funny show with great talent. Totally worth going to see. For a good laugh and good show, go check it out. If I went back to Vegas while it is still running, I would totally see again. Loved it. Go see and you will not be disappointed.
