| - My friend visited & we knew we wanted to see something classic Vegas & burlesque. It's getting harder & harder to find a good "classic Vegas" show as they're starting to disappear off the Strip but luckily we found this one & it fit into everything we were looking for. I bought us V.I.P. tickets which turns out was not necessary because it's a really small & intimate theater. I think you'd be able to see the show well from any seat because it's very small which actually I like.
Spoilers: The show is a mix of traditional burlesque, cabaret, & modern dance. Yes there's some Nicki Minaj twerk action in the show. It's one of those shows that changes theme each song. They've got everything from fetish, cowboy, hiphop, & more. The only segment I did not enjoy was a scene where a girl rode & danced all over a (seriously) giant cock that shoots out confetti seaman at the end. I'm not a prude but it was just very random, weird, & not sexy. I'm pretty sure everyone agreed because that's the only scene where no one clapped & the room got super silent & awkward. I think we were all thinking "What is even happening.." Every other scene was full of hooting & applause.
In between dances there is a comedic magician. The humor is very cheesy but it works in this setting. The best part was that he interacted with the crowd a ton & that's always fun. He did a really great job. It really lightens the vibe so that it's not overly sexual in that small theater.
The girls were very beautiful, skilled professional dancers, with very fit "perfect" dancer bodies. People might complain but they've got that professional dancer body... you're not going to find Beyonce curves here but they are still very gorgeous. However not any diversity at all.. they were all white. Idk that that is how it is every show because I'm sure they have many dancers working on their team but I would have liked to see a fellow asian ... or black, hispanic, middle eastern, basically any diversity would have been nice.
Overall I enjoyed the show. I also like that its a good length. Not too long but not too short. It's not something I'd see over & over but it was perfect for what we were looking for & we had a great time.
