The production features a playlist of familiar and beloved music and lets you take a stroll down the Vegas strip of yesteryear!

Complete with music from the Rat Pack, Peggy Lee, Ann Margret, and –of course – Elvis, this night is sure to bring a smile to your face. The show will celebrate the extravagance of Sin City.
