Somewhere between the blackjack tables and the buffet lines, there is a need for organized showmanship — even in a town that is a show all in itself. Here, then, are the tried and true among Las Vegas’ ongoing shows, the ones that have, since their inception, proved to be sellouts night after night.
For most of these shows, you’ll want to reserve tickets before you leave home. That may mean paying by credit card over the phone (with attendant processing fees). Some shows offer a dinner option, most include drinks. Generally, each show holds two productions a night, except for the one or two nights a week that the show is “dark.” They’ll run not a second over 90 minutes, straight through, with no intermission.
The area code for all numbers is 702.
