An Old Fashioned, some red lipstick and a black dress…sigh, there’s just something undeniable about a good ol’ classic. The beloved Vegas showgirl may be an endangered species these days (insert tear), but “VEGAS! THE SHOW” preserved those feather-clad beauties and the likes of an era when everything was flashier and dripping with sophistication. What’s that you ask? Can a show filled with gorgeous and talented women a la Rat Pack era really exist in the here and now? Oh yes my friend, it sure can and all we have to say is raise that curtain and let the good times roll. With a little song, a lot of dance and that certain sultry allure that only old timey Vegas could pull off, this is a trip down memory lane and, well, it’s pretty legit. The costumes are fun, funky, sexy and so real. Ok, well maybe not the candy-themed costumes but hell, their Sammy Davis Jr. sure had us pining for an autograph. For a city that was built on pure, raw talent and obviously dolla dolla bills, this show celebrates iconic moments from the city's rich entertainment history through the decades that made the Vegas we know and love today. And we’ll tip our top hats to that.

Steve Wynn is a visionary entrepreneur who completely transformed Las Vegas from a budget gambling destination into a world-class center for luxury hospitality. In the 1970s, he began his remarkable ascent by revitalizing the historic Golden Nugget downtown, proving early on his unique talent for elevating properties into high-end resorts. His true breakthrough came in 1989 with the opening of The Mirage, the world’s first modern mega-resort. By integrating immersive attractions like an outdoor volcano alongside premium fine dining, Wynn shifted the entire hospitality industry's focus toward spectacular, family-friendly entertainment.Building on this success, Wynn elevated the city to the absolute pinnacle of global luxury with the debut of the Bellagio in 1998. Inspired by the elegance of Italian villages, this landmark resort introduced the world-famous Bellagio Fountains and a dedicated fine art gallery showcasing masterpieces by Picasso and Monet. This bold move proved that elite culture and high-end aesthetics could thrive in the desert, forever changing how global travelers viewed the city.Wynn subsequently cemented his enduring design legacy by launching his signature twin resorts, Wynn Las Vegas and Encore, which consistently earned top international five-star accolades for service and architecture. He then successfully exported this meticulous standard of elegance to Asia, developing magnificent properties in Macau that helped establish the region as a premier international tourism hub. Through decades of innovative design and an uncompromising commitment to quality, Wynn fundamentally reshaped the modern resort experience across the globe.
