Review: Rock of Ages is a very funny, feel-good Broadway musical with a never-aging story of Sherrie, a "province girl" who dreams to conquer a Los Angeles with her singing talent. Along the way, she meets a boy named Drew, with a passion and ambitions of his own. Whether they fulfill their ambitions or find love is for you to discover:-).The show employs classic rock music from the 80s that evokes nostalgia (provided you were there in the 80s!). Rock of Ages was nominated for five Tony Awards including Best Musical.

Review: Finally the Winning Broadway musical found its new home in Vegas! If you don't know the story - this show is about the night of December 4, 1956, when four famous artists - Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Carl Perkins, met at Sun Records studio for a recording session. The memorable night of music-making and fun is brought to life by talented actors (I heard that the actor playing Jerry Lee Lewis is really good!) who sing all favorite rock 'n' roll songs. If you like musicals and rock 'n' roll from the 1950s, this show is for you! The musical won Tony award for Best Performance by a Featured Actor in a Musical by actor Levi Kreis, and was nominated for Best Musical and Best Book of a Musical.

Evil Dead The Musical 4D

Venue: V Theater Miracle Mile Planet Hollywood

Date & Time: Friday - 10:00 pm, Saturday - 11:30 pm

Discount Tickets

Review: And here is a musical for horror film fans - a true 4D experience of blood, slaughter and walking demons! Just in case you are wondering - it's 4D because the audience experiences it all - especially the blood flying all over. Don't worry - you may buy ponchos right before the entrance. The show is actually one of the funniest Las Vegas musicals - it's a satire of the horror movies - especially Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2. The plot is set in a cabin in the woods where students release an evil spirit.

Venue: New York NY Broadway Theatre

Age restrictions: 5+

Broadway Celebration is a new show playing at the Broadway Theatre in New York Hotel & Casino. A young cast of actors performs live on stage most prominent songs from Broadway shows - Les Misèrables, Chicago, Cats and others. Can I recommend it? Perhaps it wouldn't be my first choice of a show in Vegas, but if you love Broadway, feel nostalgic and want to hear your favorite songs (my favorite being I Dreamed A Dream)- this is one of Las Vegas musicals that nails it. This show can also be a good introduction for your kids to a real Broadway show.

Synopsis: Menopause The Musical is a hilarious celebration of women going through The Change. The story is about 4 women who meet in a department store - each of them is experiencing hot flashes, wrinkles, mood swings and everything else that comes with the "wonderful journey" that is a menopause. The show raises awareness about the issue all the while lifting up the mood of the women in the audience who experience the change as they realize that they are not alone in this journey. Although we were sceptical at first about this play, it turned out to be one of the best current Las Vegas musicals - highly recommended for every woman over 45 and especially for their husbands!
