| - Halfway through my night at The Act I was thinking "This is a really great time" because it was entertaining, and different. Unfortunately you can read about that in the other reviews, because I have to talk about how the staff at The Act ruined my friend's birthday and our last night in Vegas.
We brought in more than twelve people, guys in suits, girls in dresses, and we paid for wristbands to drink at the open bar. We arrived around 11:30. After an hour of dancing and watching the shows, a bouncer kicks out my friend and his girlfriend, no justification. He claims she was "intoxicated" when she was very clearly not. Not wanting to cause a problem, my friends complied with being escorted outside, and waited to ask what was going on and why they were being removed. I guess calmly asking what the problem is doesn't work at The Act. The bouncer just said he could remove them for any reason that he wanted, he didn't need to have a reason. Are you kidding me? We were couples who paid a hundred dollars and we had one hour in the club before our clearly sober friends were removed. Interestingly enough this was when there was finally some action in the club and it was starting to fill up. I guess they needed space for the single people? My friend was clearly targeted, although truly, we have yet to figure out if there was any real reason other than a greedy club trying to increase turnover.
We're a group of friends in our late twenties willing to pay good money for a fun, interesting, different kind of night we thought The Act would provide. What was different is that we paid to be treated like garbage an have our night ruined. No one felt the need to come up with a reason for removing my friend and her boyfriend.
What's worse is that we were paying guests of the hotel as well, but it seems that the staff at The Act thinks that once they have your money, they can toss you out. We aren't loud piss drunk 21 year olds. Ironically there were several loud piss drunk 21 year olds falling over that were allowed to stay. It seems that purchasing "unlimited" drinks at The Act is a ticket to the door.
Save yourself time, money, and embarrassment and go to XS or Hakkasan.... or anywhere where they actually train and watch their staff.
