| - No, no, and more NO.
I don't even know where to begin my rant. I suppose the 3 flights of stairs that we had to walk up in order to reach the theatre would be a good place to start. Let's begin.
I went with my sister for free cause we got tickets for donating blood. Be wary of show tickets that are given as promotional items or as free gifts because it usually means the show is mediocre and does this in order to fill seats. Ceasar's isn't giving out Celine tickets to the first 1000 kids who complete the summer reading program. Just saying.
After climbing the 3 flights of stairs and reaching the theatre, we were seated. I hadn't really come intending to get a butt workout, but so be it. So far, so good.
The show begins with some guy sitting on broken neon-light casino signs singing some song about Vegas that looks like he's lip-synching to. He's supposed to be at the neon graveyard, a Las Vegas attraction where people think it's really original and hip to get engagement or wedding photos taken at cause they're just SO local like that. I digress...
Basically the entire show consists of boring songs and sloppy dance numbers with way too much happening on stage at once. I HATE musicals, but I'm a theatre major so I've seen enough to know what a good one looks like. This show was a hot mess. The singing seemed like it was pre-recorded, the dancers were all over the place, and it was just all around BORING.
The whole show you have cocktail waitresses walking around taking people's drink orders and toting trays with light-up, blinking cups. Tacky, distracting, and annoying!
The only good part was the magic show. Somehow the performer pulls about 57 exotic birds out of his coat over the course of his 5 minute act, which was cool.
The acrobats just made your hands sweat cause their act was so shaky. You're afraid you're going to witness someone get paralyzed the entire performance. At one point, the gymnast grabbed on to the back curtain to keep herself from falling. Not enjoyable to watch. It was just nerve-wracking in an uncomfortable way. They need to get this act a lot cleaner or leave it out.
If you're looking for a good variety show, go to Absinthe. Less singing, no group dance numbers, and WAY cooler acrobatics. The tickets are the same price, which is laughable because Vegas! The Show charging even $20 would be heinous. Basically, just avoid this piece of crap. It's not much better than a high school theatre performance and certainly not worth $80 a ticket.
