So Much to Experience

If you haven’t had the pleasure or privilege of experiencing AREA15, do yourself a favor and get your tickets now—this week in particular! The all-in-one entertainment extravaganza is throwing one of the craziest, zaniest parties of the year: We’re All Mad Here, celebrating the world of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (“Massive Attraction,” p. 32). But that’s just the beginning; AREA15 has so much to see, do, eat and appreciate. And there are now Experience Passes available to help you customize your experience.

This week’s issue of Las Vegas Magazine is focused on entertainment in all its many forms, and that includes tribute acts. And Spice Wannabe—The Spice Girls Tribute at Excalibur will make you believe you’re seeing—and hearing— the real thing (“Say You’ll Be There,” p. 12).

Another hot ticket is Dita Von Teese’s burlesque spectacular at Horseshoe Las Vegas, Dita Las Vegas: A Jubilant Revue. In this issue, LVM ’s Em Jurbala interviews the legend herself on what it means to be bringing a classic entertainment form back to Las Vegas (“Stripped Down,” p. 40).

One of my absolute favorite artists of all time, Frankie Valli, is not only still going strong at 89, he’s got a residency at Westgate Las Vegas!

If you’ve never heard the man in person, don’t give this one a second thought: He’s responsible for some of the best songs of all time (“Our Eyes Adore Him,” p. 20).

In between all this entertainment, don’t forget to eat! Seafood fans will love Aqua at Resorts World Las Vegas (“An Ocean of Flavor,” p. 28), while sports fans will want to check out the brunch menu at Flanker Kitchen + Sports Bar at Mandalay Bay (“I Have a Hunch This Is Brunch,” p. 17 ).

Enjoy your Las Vegas experience!

Say You’ll Be There

Strip tribute show perfectly re-creates the look and sound of famous girl-power group

“Wannabe” by the Spice Girls was a turning point in ’90s music. Up until its release in 1996, the charts had been dominated by male-dominated Britpop bands. Not only was the song a runaway hit, it led to a slew of similar girl-power anthems. The band was relatively short-lived in comparison with others of the time (they released three studio albums, the last one in 2000), but its impact remains an indelible and long-lasting one.

Given that The Spice Girls have had two reunion tours since their heyday (one in Las Vegas), they would seem ripe for a Las Vegas residency (and plenty here have been clamoring for it). But visitors to Vegas don’t have to wait for that particular Spice of life, thanks to Spice Wannabe—The Spice Girls Tribute, where the look and music of the quintet lives on in living color.

The show itself is a touring one, the latest date being at Harrah’s Cherokee Casino Resort in North Carolina. “It was amazing,” said creator/co-producer Casey McConachie, who plays Emma “Baby Spice” Bunton in the show, in a Las Vegas Magazine interview. “It was such a good show. It was probably our biggest crowd that we’ve had so far.”

Spice Wannabe has certainly experienced much success in Las Vegas over its lifespan, debuting at South Point and selling out at Silverton Casino Lodge in February 2023. The current version launched at Excalibur last summer. “The hype around it was already building and growing,” said McConachie. “July was amazing. First night, second, every show … it was so much energy, so many people coming out to see it because it was a limited engagement. We didn’t know if we were going to stay past July, so people were coming and dressing up.”

All cast members needed to not only look like Spice Girls, but needed to be able to sing and dance—no mean feat. And mission accomplished. “The little kids are watching us, not understanding we’re a tribute show,” McConachie said. “They think that we are the group. It’s really cute to see how they’re screaming at the top of their lungs.” –Las Vegas Magazine Staff

Life and Legacy

Hear this Las Vegas legend’s stories and songs at his Strip residency

No history of Las Vegas would be complete without a chapter devoted to Mr. Las Vegas himself, Wayne Newton . The tireless entertainer has been an integral part of this town for decades, stretching all the way back to the days when he would perform multiple shows a day back in the 1950s to the days when he headlined at major Strip properties, becoming one of the most successful entertainers in the city’s history.

For that alone, Newton has earned his legend status. But when you mix in the man’s other bona fides, including immortal songs like “Danke Schoen,” “Red Roses for a Blue Lady” and “Daddy, Don’t You Walk So Fast,” his work with the U.S. Armed Forces and his numerous charitable causes, Newton stakes a case for being the most influential Las Vegas resident of all time.

In case you need more proof, definitely get a ticket for his one-man show, Wayne: Up Close and Personal, in which the man himself holds court (with some surprise guest stars always thrown in), taking audiences through his life with the help of multimedia presentations and various songs.

What really sets Up Close and Personal apart from other Strip shows is that no two shows are ever the same, as Newton has so much material to draw from. One night, he’ll talk about his passion for Arabian horse breeding; another night, you’ll hear an anecdote about his appearance on a TV show.

That’s the magic of Wayne Newton; everyone who comes to see his show probably remembers him differently, so varied has his career been. And just as everyone who loves Newton feels a connection to him, that’s reciprocated 10 times over; Newton is well known for coming into the audience and greeting as many people as he can.

Time to experience Vegas history in the flesh. –Ken Miller

I Have a Hunch This Is Brunch

Delightful drinks join delicious dishes for a great start to the day

Spring makes an excellent time to check out the brunches in Vegas, and, boy, do we have a fair few here, including at Flanker Kitchen + Sports Bar on Saturdays and Sundays. With a large bar area, plenty of screens and a dining area dominated by a monstrous screen across the far wall that always has an interesting sporting event on, this restaurant will ensure you start the day right.

Grab a libation first—and, of course, brunch has to have bottomless mimosas and a Bloody Mary cart. Large-format

cocktails, tons of beer choices and beer towers guarantee you’ll stay hydrated. A DJ also provides the tunes.

A basket of donuts, lox and cream cheese flatbreads, or spinach crab dip let everyone share, but there are plenty of entrées to order, like the green chili pork Benedict with smoked pork shoulder, avocado and a green chili hollandaise, or the Dutch Baby cast Iron Pancake, with a lemon ricotta pancake, maple syrup and berry compote. Brown butter pancakes, with whipped butter, strawberries and

pistachio cream, give those butter lovers something to live for. But the double wagyu smash burger may be more to your liking, with its quarter-pound patties, American cheese and bacon-onion jam stacked on a brioche bun.

Whether you’re looking to recover from your night-before festivities or start the day rolling right, Flanker Kitchen + Sports Bar is sure to help you get on with that mission. –Nina King

Eat Excellence

Experience nothing short of perfection at this downtown Las Vegas favorite

I met Barry S. Dakake on my very first assignment for Las Vegas Magazine back in 2015—a dinner at N9NE Steakhouse at Palms. The second Barry came out to shake my hand and introduce himself, I felt like one of his closest friends. He sat down at my table, and we discussed everything from his philosophies on cooking to our families. The man had a way about him that made me feel special. Oh, and his food rocked! He even brought out a few things that weren’t on his menu.

And that’s about what you can expect at Barry’s Downtown Prime. Yes, there’s a menu, and it’s packed with deliciousness, but Dakake’s sense of adventure is alive and well here. As he explained to Las Vegas Magazine upon opening in 2020, “If you come into my restaurant and you can’t find something that you like, shame on me! And, if you can’t find it, you can ask and I can make it!” And believe us, if Dakake takes a special liking to you, he’ll probably bring something off the menu out anyway.

Appetizers are a must, with a wild combination of flavors in delights like a bone marrow luge atop a bed of fettuccine Alfredo topped with Parmigiano Reggiano, truffle butter and Madeira wine, pictured. If you want to keep the beef theme going, it doesn’t get much better than the 46-ounce Mishima Reserve tomahawk ribeye, sourced from Mishima Reserve Farms in Seattle.

If you’re more of a seafood fan, the Dover sole is a treat for both the eyes and tastebuds, sautéed and served with baby gulf shrimp, lemon and butter sauce. And the “organic” jerk chicken, accompanied by slow roasted coconut jasmine rice and crispy plantain, is rich and delicious, and one of the best versions in all of downtown. –Ken Miller

Our Eyes Adore Him

Almost 90, this music legend shows he’s lost none of his power to command audiences

Lest you doubt Frankie Valli’s ability to still bring the magic at the age of 89, you might want to check out the video taken at Clive Davis’ pre-Grammy party in 2023. Valli, along with his band The Four Seasons, delivered an impromptu rendition of “Can’t Take My Eyes off You,” and to say they killed it is a serious understatement. Within seconds, Valli and his perfect falsetto had the crowd on its feet dancing and singing the chorus to perfection, demonstrating two things at once: Valli’s songs are not just timeless, they’re universal in their appeal; and Valli is still capable of commanding a room. Find out for yourself this week when the man himself returns to his ongoing residency at the International Theater.

There’s never been a better time to be a Four Seasons fan. On one side of town you’ve got a revival of the award-winning musical Jersey Boys, while at Westgate you get to see the real thing, at least until fall (Valli has signed on for dates in April, July and October).

And as you listen to all the classics you know by heart, from “Sherry” and “Walk Like a Man” to “Big Girls Don’t Cry” and “Dawn,” it seems like a pretty safe bet that you’ll be dancing and singing just like those folks in the now-viral video. Get ready for an irresistible evening. –Ken Miller

A Day of Revitalization

Spa lets guest sink into bliss from tip to toe

Sometimes you need more than a nap to get back to balance. And that’s where a spa may be just what the doctor ordered. Qua Baths & Spa will not only help you recover, but also pamper you as well.

If you are traveling with a significant other, consider the 100-minute Couples Bliss Retreat. The Tri-Crystal Coconut Sugar Scrub exfoliates your body, and afterward choose either a hot oil scalp massage or a hand-and-foot paraffin treatment. The retreat closes out with a pressure massage with essential oils.

Work on those sore areas with an 80-minute customized sport massage, where massage therapists help stretch those muscles and add a cooling topical gel for more relief. Another great option to ease overworked areas is the traditional hot stone aromatherapy, which features deep-tissue massage in 50-and 80-minute sessions.

Facials can target not only the face, but the body as well. For instance, the 50-minute Back Optimizer cleanses and softens the skin on the often-overlooked back. The HydraFacial for the face exfoliates, hydrates

and plumps the face. It is available in 50- and 80-minute sessions and is well worth your time.

Get it all with the Qua Signature Hourglass treatment, available in both 120- and 180-minute sessions. Skincare, massage and body treatments in an unhurried environment are sure to get you feeling amazing. And as long as you’re here, take advantage of hot and cold saunas and the renowned Roman baths. Get ready to say “Aaaaaaah.” –Nina King

Enticing lounge at The Venetian hits the sweet spot

Five words you’ll utter as you walk through the doors of Juliet Cocktail Room at The Venetian: “Wow, this place is gorgeous.” Your eyes immediately go to the back wall, where a mirrored, gold-hued bar showcases spirits that line shelves and retro bar stools beckon drinkers to take a seat. The interior design is Victorianinspired opulence mixed with a balanced combination of modern and vintage pieces throughout the space, which includes a sizable main room and an intimate back room that gives off private library vibes.

Equally as visually enticing are Juliet Cocktail Room’s libations. “We put so much emphasis and thought into the design and décor of the space that we knew we needed to continue that theme into our cocktail program,” said Ryan Labbe, owner of Juliet Cocktail Room. “All of our glassware was handpicked and vetted by our team to ensure that it ‘gives a show!’ The cocktails bring energy to the room, and we love that our guests take photos

and share. We want it to be part of the overall experience.”

Eyes do surely dart around the room any time one of Juliet’s specialty cocktails are brought to a table. The glassware is impressive, and the garnishes add the extra flair. But is it only about the looks? Absolutely not; these cocktails are tasteworthy. Two shining stars include the Oak and Orange. “The Oak

Tips/Insider Knowledge

Juliet Cocktail Room is currently offering the Ghost of the Godfather specialty cocktail, priced at $225. It’s a combo of two unique spirits, with Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost & Rare, from ghost distilleries around Scotland, and Disaronno Riserva, aged with macerated apricots in young Highland Scotch barrels.

and Orange is a spin on a Moscow mule, served in a copper mug in the shape of a martini glass with ginger beer, Woodford Reserve and notes of oak and orange,” said Chris Zadie, director of operations. “It is reminiscent of a whiskey Creamsicle cocktail, topped with a little zing from a splash of ginger beer.” The other is The Queen’s Garden. “The Queen’s Garden is a cleaner version of a gin sour with Empress gin and a flavor profile using inspiration from floral notes,” he said. “It is served in an old-fashioned coupe glass with a simplistic modern approach. The taste is tart yet creamy with an egg finish... ”

Throughout the menu, you’ll find cocktails that use a broad spectrum of

spirits from gin, bourbon and whiskey to mezcal, tequila and vodka.

And the ingredients added to make up the recipes certainly pique interest; the flavors include rosemary, passion fruit purée, cinnamon syrup and fresh pear juice to Black Bay leaf syrup, fresh honeydew, cucumber and brown butter syrup.

Zadie suggests trying The Cork and Thorn, “a Middle Eastern-inspired libation served in a gold champagne flute with flat rosé, floral notes, rose water and rose syrup, fresh fig and club soda. It is crisp, refreshing and beautiful. “The Green with Envy was inspired by a Starbucks matcha latte. I loved it so much that I thought, ‘Why not make it a cocktail?’ We played around with the green tea matcha, paired with rum,

coconut and pandan leaf syrup and it’s absolutely delicious.”

Once your cocktail craving is answered, Juliet Cocktail Room rounds out the experience with entertainment. “(There are) live pianists with talented and glamorous singers, live DJs and so much more,” said Labbe. “The ambience is enjoyable and ideal for relaxing with a nice cocktail.” Additional entertainment throughout the week includes a rotating lineup of DJs, drummers, singers and pianists.

“Juliet Cocktail Room has something to offer everyone for a memorable night…,” said Labbe. “We have guests who are young and old, and from all walks of life who enjoy the sense of nostalgia Juliet provides—an ode to what lounges once were.” –Kiko Miyasato

Chris Arthur

General manager helps guests explore fantastic flavors

In Resorts World Las Vegas, you’ll find Co-Op Frosé & Eatery, a bright, welcoming shop offering frosé (frozen rosé), beer on draft, sandwiches, snacks and more. It’s an environment that general manager Chris Arthur thrives in.

Arthur, who grew up in Colorado and Hawaii, spent almost 16 years in a corporate environment honing his people skills before deciding to make a career switch to hospitality. Las Vegas seemed the perfect place for that switch.

After starting in his new industry as a server, Arthur moved to Main St. Provisions in downtown Las Vegas, where he eventually met the district manager for Co-Op Frosé, which was opening a new franchise in Las Vegas. Taking the general manager position at Co-Op Frosé & Eatery seemed a perfect way to marry his hospitality and retail expertise.

“I’m a very social, social person. I love dealing with the public, so when they come in we always greet them with a

smile. And we’re always really excited to introduce our new flavors,” Arthur says. He is also a liaison between Resorts World and the shop’s parent company.

In his off hours, Arthur and his wife love exploring, dining at a new restaurant every week, and checking out small towns and the latest Vegas attractions. “That’s what we love to do. We like to find new things that are hidden in Vegas, because there are so many Easter eggs in Vegas.” –Nina King

Seafood is only the beginning at Aqua

Fans of Shaun Hergatt’s Caviar Bar at Resorts World may despair a bit at not seeing it on the property’s website anymore, but rest easy: Hergatt’s amazing seafood concept is intact, just under a di erent name. Now called Aqua, the restaurant still o ers everything it did before— and a few new additions, including a March Madness-themed menu!

The ornately designed space creates a welcoming feel, with space for those who want to enjoy themselves at the bar or large groups who want to dine in comfort seated in plush booths or at extended tables.

Start with a signature cocktail like the Panda, a blend of Botanist gin, pandan, coconut and yuzu, or the Afternoon Tea, a vodka-forward creation made with Ketel One, Timeless Tea, Early Grey, toasted sesame and lemon. Perfect complements to these are appetizers like shrimp toast topped with caviar sauce and a kale salad bursting with the flavors of Parmesan, feta, prosciutto, pine nuts, almonds and cranberries, all drizzled with a

lemon vinaigrette. If you’re a fan of Jamón Ibérico, arguably the fi nest ham in the world, try the antipasti version here with pan con tomate.

As you would expect, Aqua still serves plenty of caviar, all from the “Caspy Caviar” menu. Whether you order Kaluga, Osetra (or the Golden or Special Reserve editions), it’s all served with homemade blinis, chives and crème fraîche.

Now that your tastebuds have been properly primed, time to dive into the other portions of the massive menu. The raw bar/shellfi sh menu is vast, and again appeals to pescatarians and carnivores. Bluefi n toro, flavored with ginger dressing and chives, salmon tartare, featuring a quail egg, brioche and fennel fronds, and hamachi, served with satsuma vin, ninja radishes, citrus segments and pickled rhubarb, are about as good as it gets, but don’t miss out on other varieties like a half-pound of king crab legs and hot oysters.

Move onto entrées like uni risotto, blending two cultures in one spectacular creation highlighted by sa ron and uni cream; vegetable red curry with Chinese green beans and butternut squash; and spicy fried chicken, this version using hot aca-

sea bass with fi ngerling potatoes and spinach; and tuna steak in a green yuzu kosho sauce. And red meat fans might want to consider the 8-ounce Australian wagyu beef (No. 9) with beef jus and organic mushrooms.

Make sure to pair any of these with the flavorful sides, from roasted broccolini in sherry vinaigrette and tru e French fries in Parmesan and tru e oil to roasted asparagus smothered with shaved Parmesan.

If you’re here for March Madness, Aqua features a “Ballers & Brackets” menu until April 8, with tasty bites like a Power Forward Poke Nachos with fried wonton chips and spicy ahi, 3 Point Crab Balls with citrus and wasabi aioli, and a Basketball Blini Dunk with 20 grams of caviar.

guards and hookah-smoking caterpillars adding to the ambience. Are they hired actors and models or attendees wise to the ways of cosplay? There is no pressure to come in full tea party regalia, but for those who feel out of place without appropriate festive accoutrements, AREA15 has a boutique for that. Wild Muse has a selection of celebratory apparel, art and accessories that range from iconic to eccentric. Massives continue throughout the year at AREA15 with Secret Garden on May 4, a summertime Galactic Zoo, and Halloween-themed ScAREA15. Any visit to one of the large-scale festivals can be complemented with excursions to AREA15 o erings such

as sky-touching aerial ride Lifto , supermarket fantasy world Omega Mart and pinball and games hall Asylum Bar + Arcade.

Art installations can be found any time of day but can take on a special glow after imbibing a Drink Me option at We’re All Mad Here. Outdoor gallery Art Island features Ivan McLean’s fire-breathing metal dragon El Scorcho and Henry Chang’s stainless steel art car Valyrian Steel

There is also a 12-foot-tall skull, Shogyo Mujo by Bart Kresa and Joshua Harker, at the entrance of the main building that is layered with projection mapping synchronized to music. Every angle provides a di erent sightline and a di erent experience, which makes the three-dimensional collaboration a suitable metaphor for AREA15 itself.

Every visit leads to an adventure unlike any undertaken before. And now AREA15 o ers Experience Passes, with four di erent access levels, Level 4 being a three-day pass that gets you into everything at AREA15. Enjoy!

At more than 1,500 shows, Pi the Magic Dragon has reason to celebrate

public’s imagination. Veteran practitioners of prestidigitation such as Pi the Magic Dragon were forced to shed their skins and conjure new innovations in performing for the masses.

Magic was once the realm of wizards and mythical creatures, secrets spells and sorcery. Then Las Vegas sprouted up in the desert and stage illusion productions evolved, with white tigers capturing the

For Pi , who becomes John van der Put o stage, that involved enlisting the aid of Mr. Pi es, a white Chihuahua, and taking audience participation to a new level. He has documented his experience as a magic dragon before moving forward, though, an endeavor that materialized in hardcover format with the printing of

Pi the Magic Book, Volume 1, a 434-page tome of tricks. Look out for it after shows at Pi ’s swag table, alongside stu ed toy replicas of the World’s Only Magic Performing Chihuahua, playing cards and pizza clocks. The latter will make sense to anyone who has seen one of Pi ’s recent shows, where he descends from the rafters and proceeds to pound a beer before creating a rambunctious rapport with the audience.

“I definitely want to get the audience’s attention from the beginning,” said van der Put after a Sunday night show. “And sort of have them thinking, ‘Oh, wait. He could talk to me at any point. I could be in the show at any point.’ That’s something I want to do from the start, is immediately be talking to people.”

holders who are still texting after the show begins, he has Mr. Piffles shot onstage from a cannon. A natural for his role, Pi es is unfazed by the explosive entrance and remains so throughout the show. Pi es’ fans, who know him from America’s Got Talent and Penn & Teller: Fool Us, react with

a mix of surprise, relief and a ection as Pi es takes his place strapped to Pi ’s torso.

While Pi es goes with the flow, Pi generates the madcap atmosphere that makes each performance feel fresh, like anything can happen.

“With magic, the tricks stay the same, but the audience changes completely,” said van der Put.

Audience members are invited at various points in the show to approach the front of the stage for a direct dragon encounter, with a select few of those invited to come onstage. Sometimes Pi makes a spontaneous decision; sometimes he can tell early on that someone might be perfect for a bit later in the show. Sometimes they’ll let him know they are partly responsible for the more than 925,000 views his year-old YouTube special, Reptile Dysfunction, has received so far.

Pi and puppy have extra reason to (sort of) smile these days: Last year, Pi es turned 16 and Pi celebrated his 1,500th show as a Strip headliner. A TV project starring the two is on the way as well, but for now the best way to come under the spell of a magic dragon—and his ohso-cute dog—is to visit Las Vegas.

AVOID THE FIGHT that’s sure to come when it’s time to choose where to eat. No tussles over sushi or barbecue, noodles or duck; when you eat at Famous Foods Street Eats, you can have it all.

The 24,000-square-foot Resorts World Las Vegas food hall opened with the property in 2021 and helped solidify a burgeoning food hall scene in Las Vegas. Famous Foods is set o with a cobblestoned “street” leading along an expansive, loose U-shaped area, with the stalls ranged up and down the U, and across from it, near the casino. A wall of windows opposite allows natural light to pour into the hall across multiple seating areas.

The food hall channels street cuisines from across the globe, with an emphasis on Asian cuisine, from Chinese to Malaysian. Many menus were

designed by established names in the global food arena, from Bib Gourmand and Michelin Plate concepts to James Beard Award-winning chef Marcus Samuelsson. Since opening, several new food experiences have been added to the hall.

For cocktails, in the very center is the circular Famous Foods Center

Famous Foods Street Eats features global cuisine in a vibrant setting

Bar, which is accented by colorful neon signs advertising wines, cocktails and spirits, with bar seating and TVs surrounding it, making for a cool hang during the day or night. There’s also a speakeasy, Here Kitty Kitty Vice Den, in the form of a gift shop with a hidden entrance to the nightlife venue. Plus, di erent drinks are available at multiple stalls.

Some of the more celebrated o erings include Kuru Kuru Pa from DJ Steve Aoki and his restaurateur brother Kevin Aoki (the Aokis’ father was behind the creation of Benihana). This Japanese, anime-inspired stall features a Snake River Farms wagyu bowl, kimchi, and the Chibi chicken bowl. Check out the screen touting The Yakitori Adventures of Chibi Aoki next to the menu board.

and Chinese, and includes dim sum, shrimp har gow, congee, noodle soup, and a whole crispy Peking duck.

At Nori Bar Sushi, Sake & Handroll, there’s a long sushi bar providing plenty of seating, with made-to-order handrolls and sashimi. You can also order sakes, matcha, seasonal tea and Japanese beer. One of the best things are the roll sets, starting at only $23. What else? There’s so much, like Boon Tong Kee. You’ll find decades-old recipe Singapore chicken rice, with chicken on a bed of flavorful chicken broth-infused rice. Googgle Man’s Char Kuey Teow serves up egg and rice noodles stir-fried with seafood and vegetables on charcoal-fired stoves. Burger Barn by Famous Foods Street Eats serves American staples like the cheeseburger, but also the Lucky Tiger Burger, with teriyaki sauce, tobanjan slaw, cheese and kimchi mayonnaise.

A newer o ering is Han’s Fish & Chips, where you can get a plate of the traditional U.K. dishes with cod or haddock and fries, or get it tucked in a bun. And yes, malt vinegar comes with it. For Thai flavor, visit Ten Suns Braised Beef, a Bangkok eatery that earned Michelin Guide Bib Gourmand recognition, and serves up egg noodles in beef broth, with brisket or steak options.

Geylang Claypot Rice is a decades-old Singaporean restaurant that has earned a Michelin Plate award. You’ll find beef and chicken options, with ingredients like salted cod, preserved cabbage, poached eggs and more, plus a vegetarian one, too, with maitake mushrooms, peppers and onion yu choy and a vegan oyster sauce.

A little farther back in the food court is the large circular dessert

stall, Sweet Eats, with an enormous illuminated lucky cat floating overhead. Depending on the day, you’ll find flavored ice, cakes, and custom-dipped candy apples. It’s the perfect ending to a meal, or, even better, perfect all on its own.

Talking technicalities with Dita Von Teese

The Queen of Modern Burlesque took over Jubilee Theater last year with an inspired production like no other. And her highness, Dita Von Teese herself, chatted with Las Vegas Magazine about using pieces of Vegas history, diversity in casting and more.

In casting Dita Las Vegas: A Jubilant Revue, did you intentionally choose such a diverse group of performers or did that sort of naturally happen?

It’s something I’ve always done in my touring shows. It just happened to be because I found that so many of the great burlesque performers are unique and di erent, and I wanted to change people’s minds about burlesque … I have two authentic burlesque performers in this Vegas show, but I also wanted to cast a lot of dancers. And I have to say, it’s not a thing in Vegas to cast for diversity, so it’s not even that easy to do. But I did it, of course.

Were there challenges you faced using the original Jubilee! set pieces and costumes?

Not really, because I dive into the history of everything–that’s my expertise. I was working directly with someone

Photoby Albert Sanchez/Pedro Zalba

Jubilee! and we have several people working on the costumes that worked with the show before, so they know a lot … It was very important to me that everything gets treated well and that things don’t get misused. I have a great reverence for what Jubilee! was and for what the

Vegas showgirl was and how we can pay homage to that but also advance it and capture the spirit of it without totally imitating.

ticketmaster.com

How did you strike a balance between paying homage to Jubilee! while creating a show that’s undeniably Dita? Well, the show, make no mistake, is not a redo of Jubilee!—I brought my 30 years of life’s work into this show, so it had to always be my signature. The act is full of strip-scapes that I created with my longtime partner, Catherine D’Lish, and so you have all my (original acts). You have all of my martini and champagne glasses all onstage at once, my giant powder compact, my carousel horses, my big, gilded shell–my Venus shell. It’s pretty much almost everything I ever did, done in a big way and with other performers doing the numbers under my direction … It’s my life’s work in one show for the first time ever. And there were things that I wanted to stay true to when it comes to my brand of burlesque. For instance, Jubilee! was a topless revue and I love the aesthetic of the crystallized pasties, so those are in there. That’s not a showgirl thing, that’s just a little nod to the golden age of burlesque that I bring in there.
