| - As a Stratosphere hotel guest you can get a VIP ticket package for $41 a person. The package includes VIP seats which are very close to the stage but not too close that you can't see the show. You get 2 drinks per person and you can pretty much get whatever you want. I drank manhattan's and my husband drank captain and gingers. You also receive 2 photographs of starlet Claire Sinclair that you can have autographed after the show.
The show was ok. It wasn't amazing by any means but it was entertaining. The dancers and musicians were phenomenal with a great singer as well. Claire Sinclair is really only part of the show for 10 minutes. I had read this in other reviews and wasn't sure if it was just an exaggeration but after seeing it---yea it was probably 10 minutes. Listed as the starlet of the show, she really didn't do anything star worthy other than look beautiful, strut around the stage like it was a beauty pageant, wink and smile, and shake her chest. Beautiful girl. No dancing talent and she didn't sing.
The dancers were really great. They each had a solo in the show which I really enjoyed. There was ballet, lyrical dance, tap, and pole dancing. There were many other great dance numbers as well but I was really excited to see ballet, lyrical, and tap. There were themes for each scene too. The idea is that you go through a pin up calendar from the 1940s. One theme was for baseball, one was in a bedroom with a french maid, one was of april showers, one was halloween, cowgirl, etc. The themes were fun.
Enjoyable show if you are looking for something relatively inexpensive and not cheesy. If you have high expectations, go see a cirque show.
