Steven Wright
Comedian’s jokes keep on coming Surrealist comedian Steven Wright has been deadpanning jokes his entire adult life. Thanks to a mix of originality and opportunity he managed to springboard a triumphant Tonight Show debut into a four-decade career that continues to warrant a heavy stand-up schedule. He spoke with Las Vegas Magazine’s Matt Kelemen in advance of his Nov. 25-26 appearances at The Orleans, reminiscing about crucial points in his career and the influences that shaped his iconoclastic style. I remember being in the theater watching Reservoir Dogs having no expectation of what I was about to see, and the first thing that happens after the opening scene is your voice-over. People are always going to come back and watch it and they’ll hear your voice forever. I know. I was really lucky to get in there. A guy I just talked to told me it’s 25 years old now, that movie. I see a parallel with your Tonight Show experience. You didn’t see either one coming, or what they would mean to your career later. Yeah, definitely. As far as that first Tonight Show, I wanted to go on there since I was 16. That was my dream. That was my fantasy, to be a comedian and go on there. And I went on when I was 26, and that six minutes changed my whole life. So Johnny Carson changed my life twice. The fact from watching it that I even wanted to be a comedian—that’s how it got into my head—and then when I went on and everything changed. What led to you becoming a regular guest on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson? Peter (Lassally, The Tonight Show’s co-producer) went on to produce Letterman in New York and then he didn’t want to live in New York anymore, so he went back to California. … Then he was
24 11.20.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
producing Craig Ferguson, so he had me on there all the time because I became friends with him since the time I met him. So I was on there all the time until that show ended, and then Peter retired. Peter changed my life by putting me on The Tonight Show. Can you talk about the catalysts in your career? Well, I was very influenced by George Carlin and Woody Allen. George Carlin was on The Tonight Show all the time. And then there was a radio show in Boston. … The guy played two entire comedy albums. It was right when I was watching The Tonight Show all the time when I was 16. He had a huge amount. He had Bob Newhart. By the way, I love Bob Newhart. He’s a genius. Did you and Craig Ferguson hit it off immediately or did that evolve? No, I hit it off with him because he’s a comedian also, and when I first started going on there, some of it was we knew what we were going to talk about ahead of time, but after three or four times, it was just all made up. I never did improv like that before. He was so fast and funny; the whole thing was like eight minutes of insanity. It was one of the funnest things I ever did on television … just riffing with him.
And you never turn it off? Your random-accessing part of your subconscious is always on? If it was illegal for me to perform anymore it could not stop my mind. I’ve been writing since I was 23, and it’s just like any exercise you do, physical or mental. My mind is always scanning. It’s just joking. It’s fun to think. It’s fun to joke around. It’s fun to see the joke. It’s a fun thing to do. I love doing it. You once said about Vegas, “I like going there because the
place is so weird. It’s the only place I play where outside the theater is weirder than anything I’m talkin’ about.” Do you still feel that way? When I say that city’s weird I’m saying it looks weirder than what I’m saying onstage. That’s what I mean. There’s so much creativity out there, it’s just unbelievable how many creative people there are in all different forms of art. My analogy was a visual thing. I mean, the Eiffel Tower and the pyramid thing … it’s insane. The Statue of Liberty? It’s strange.

Most of us love the holiday season, and one reason why is that we just like to help others. We do it in many ways, such as donating coats or toys. And that spirit is being celebrated at Hexx Chocolate and Confexxions at Paris this season, with a toy drive to benefit Toys for Tots through Dec. 16. Bring new or unused toys in (or buy them in the store), get 15 percent off purchases and be entered into a weekly raffle for gift certificates or store products. Hexx is even giving away a $500 value prize basket on Dec. 20 to one donor. Feel good, do good! Call 702.331.5100 for more information.

One question
Jason Tenner How did Prince—whom you perform as and who passed away April 21—influence you and the culture at large? Prince has influenced my career in many ways. Obviously if there was no Prince, there would be no Purple Reign! I really did not know much about Prince before having the idea to build a show based around him and his music, which came about because of a Halloween costume in 1996. As a result, I became a fan and started really digging into his catalog and studying his character for the role. Impersonating him for so many years, I’ve learned quite a bit as an entertainer and musician. He inspired me to learn to play multiple instruments as well as learn to write and record my own music. I believe Prince has had the same impact on the music artist community at large and has inspired many people to stretch out further than perhaps they would have. I also believe that for a lot of artists, he made it OK to honestly and bravely express themselves and not be afraid to be different. He was also one of the first artists to shine a spotlight on the music industry and how artists should protect their rights and their intellectual property. I believe Prince’s impact on music, his prolific catalog of output, and his bravery as an artist, will inspire musicians and artists for generations. Jason Tenner performs in Purple Reign at Westgate. Shows are 9 p.m. Wed.-Sat. Call 800.222.5361 for tickets.

Where did the prop-gag wit begin? Flash back to the Top’s days as a Florida college student, when he dabbled in standard standup that needed a goose—and got it when he swiped a “Neighborhood Crime Watch”
sign. “Everybody said, ‘Where did you get the sign?’ I said, ‘I took it—and how good is their crime watch if I’m taking their sign?’ It was funny and a friend said I should open with that.” The rest is comedy history.

On Message It’s rare for faith-based musical artists to cross over into the secular world, but bands Switchfoot and Relient K have both had success across the Christian and mainstream markets. Both bands started out in the Christian rock scene in the late ’90s, releasing albums independently before signing to major labels and garnering airplay. Although their lyrics never stray from uplifting spiritual messages, they’re also relatable and universal, reaching out to people of many faiths. That’s helped both bands score radio hits like Switchfoot’s “Meant to Live,” “Dare You to Move” and “Stars” and Relient K’s “Be My Escape,” “Who I Am Hates Who I’ve Been” and “Must Have Done Something Right.” Both have new albums that were released this year (Switchfoot’s Where the Light Shines Through, Relient K’s Air for Free). Their mainstream popularity has faded a bit, but their faith remains strong, and their fans know that each band can still deliver a positive message with a catchy hook. –Josh Bell

An Italian Favorite Getting Figgy With It Comedy magician Mac King specializes in close-up magic for all ages, often with a Fig Newton in the mix. It all started this way: King was performing at the Magic Castle in Los Angeles and stayed at a friend’s house while he was sick. He asked for Fig Newtons and a jug of orange juice. “The next night, I go out to do my show and I’m doing an earlier version
28 11.20.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
of the card trick. The woman is supposed to reach in my jacket pocket and come out empty-handed. Instead, she reached in and came out with a handful of Fig Newtons.” It was an instant hit, and they’ve been in the act ever since. –Susan Stapleton Harrah’s, 1 & 3 p.m. Tues.-Sat.

Or try the pappardelle Mimmo, wide ribbons of pasta with scallops, lobster, asparagus, butter, sage and truffle oil. Finish off with a decadent dessert like the pistachio passion—rich, walnutcrusted and layered with pistachio cream and cream cheese custard. –Chanelle Hayes 11:30 a.m.-2 a.m. Mon.-Fri., 4 p.m.2 a.m. Sat.-Sun., 4480 Paradise Road. 702.364.5300

Feel-Good Music Backed by a six-piece band and four dancers, Solid Gold Soul takes audiences on a “soulrific” journey back in time. Greg Laster channels James Brown with the godfather of soul’s greatest hits: “Papa’s Got a Brand New Bag,” “I Got You (I Feel Good)” and “It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World.” If you’re wondering if Brown’s famous cape routine makes it into the show, yes it does, as Laster gets a standing ovation on “Please, Please, Please.” Legendary moments like those keep coming: The jack of all trades Pete Peterkin from America’s Got Talent takes on the role of the piano-playing Ray Charles, embodying his musical styling on “Georgia On My Mind” and “Hit the Road Jack” while Grady Harrell does double duty as Jackie Wilson and Sam Cooke, twistin’ the night away. Marva Scott’s portrayal of the queen of Motown Diana Ross, along with The Supremes, comes alive in “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” and “Baby Love.” Scott also performs a few
numbers by Martha Reeves and The Vandellas. Motown’s presence is shown throughout the show, honoring other acts such as The Four Tops and Smokey Robinson. –Chanelle Hayes

Mop-Top Invasion Memorably, they musically declared that you “Can’t Buy Me Love.” Ironically, it turns out the Mop Tops were wrong: Yes, you can buy yourself love—as in The Beatles LOVE. Just purchase a ticket. Now marking its 10th anniversary, the Cirque du Soleil extravaganza reinvigorated itself for its milestone year with new acts, costumes, choreography and technology. LOVE now features additional images of the Fab Four, including Paul McCartney crooning “Yesterday,” John Lennon’s visage appearing during “All You Need Is Love” and Ringo Starr
popping up during “Octopus’ Garden” in an air bubble. “Twist and Shout” has joined the soundtrack, while technology has been amped up by 20 projectors for sharp visuals. Check out the new dance moves of the 77-member cast. And returning fans will also note the insertion of characters like Sgt. Pepper, Eleanor Rigby, Father McKenzie into locations such as the Octopus’ Garden, Penny Lane and Strawberry Fields. –Steve Bornfeld The Mirage, 7 & 9:30 p.m. Thurs.-Mon., $79$180 plus tax and fee. 702.792.7777

New Notes Perhaps you can read between the lines—but can you hear between them? That’s the challenge posed by the star of Clint Holmes: Between the Lines, the consummate entertainer’s new production. “I started teaching master classes last year, and I found myself saying over and over to singers, ‘It has to be personal, you have to find what’s between the lines of what the writer wrote,’” says Holmes. Employing considerable interpretive skills, Holmes puts new spins on classic compositions and the works of contemporary artists such as John Mayer, Ed Sheeran and Adele. Holmes takes crowds on a ride that stretches from The Beatles’ “I Saw Her Standing There” to Justin Timberlake’s “Can’t Stop the Feeling.” Along the way, he makes stops at two tunes titled “Just the Way You Are” (one by Billy Joel, the other by Bruno Mars), Sheeran’s “Thinking Out Loud”—and even Holmes’ own radio hit, “Playground in My Mind.” Those are just a few from a set list peppered with his personal history. –Steve Bornfeld

The show, ahem, climaxes with Cools’ signature porn auditions, as each volunteer displays their skill. “Certain things will always affect the show—moon cycles, the time of year, even bills being due at tax time...” Cools said. “You don’t know what’s going to happen until it happens.” –SB Paris, 9 p.m. Thurs.-Sun. & Tues., $44.36-$74.63 plus tax and fee, 18+. 877.374.7469
Any mention of the Bee Gees brings to mind the days of disco for many, and a production titled The Australian Bee Gees Show: A Tribute to the Bee Gees is sure to draw fans of the iconic band. The show delivers a British Invasion-era selection of songs including “I Started a Joke” and “Massachusetts” that makes sing-alongs irresistible to many in the crowd. A video homage to ’70s live music gives the “brothers” a chance to change from ’60s fashions into Saturday Night Fever style. –Matt Kelemen Excalibur, 7 p.m. Sat.-Thurs., additional 7 p.m. show Nov. 25, $49.95-$59.95 plus tax and fee. 702.597.7600

Pulling Out All the Stops Jim Jefferies is a touring behemoth. His website has dates listed through May of next year. That includes: an 11-night run in New Zealand in eight different cities; multiple shows in New Orleans, Boston and San Francisco; and a two-night engagement at The Mirage. The 39-year-old comedian, a native of Perth, Australia, was once an aspiring singer. Recently, during Comedy Central’s The Comedy Jam, he told one story of how he injured his vocal cords and was told he’d never be able to sing again. In fact, for months, he couldn’t speak at all. It was during his time of silence that he
began writing material and focusing his point of view for his new career. He’s had an acclaimed television show in Legit, a massively popular podcast in Jim and Eddie Talkin Sh*t and even starred in a low-budget zombie flick called Me and My Mates vs. the Zombie Apocalypse. But where Jefferies might shine most is onstage with the spoken word. Just watch any of his stand-up specials. Just listen to his bit about his dysfunctional relationship with his mother. Just catch him at The Mirage. And you’ll know why. –Jason Harris

BLT Steak feels intimate even though there are 240 seats in the house. Feel free to begin with a chilled shellfish platter, but save room for beautiful salads and mouthwatering appetizers. Tuna tartare is a favorite starter, fresh and cool and sitting atop a creamy avocado and tangy soy-lime dressing. All the beef at this chophouse is USDA prime naturally raised Black Angus. American wagyu options include an unbeatable 12-ounce ribeye and a flavorful 6-ounce filet mignon. And you really can’t go wrong with a 28-day dry-aged porterhouse for two, which could probably feed an entire family—once you throw in a few of the tasty sides such as truffle mashed potatoes and stuffed mushroom caps. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff Bally’s, 5-10 p.m. Sun.-Thurs., 5-10:30 p.m. Fri.-Sat., Sterling Brunch 9:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. Sun. 702.967.7258

Frank Marino’s impact on the entertainment scene over the last 30 years is undeniable. The performers in his show, Frank Marino’s Divas Las Vegas, have appeared in Toddlers & Tiaras, Long Island Medium, Millionaire Matchmaker, The Oprah Winfrey Show, America’s Got Talent and much more. . Also undeniable is the appeal of Marino’s show, which features a rotating cast impersonating more than a dozen of pop culture’s most iconic personalities on any given night—Tina Turner, Dolly Parton, Lady Gaga, Bette Midler and Madonna to name just a few. As Marino asks, “Why see only one star when you can see them all?” A particular highlight is Derrick Barry, who’s been with the cast for seven years and delivers an uncanny Britney Spears. According to Marino, Barry, who recently appeared on RuPaul’s Drag Race, is “Britney’s personal favorite.” Marino serves as emcee, which includes many costume changes and some very risqué humor based on current events. –Ken Miller

Country-Fried Journey Flying High Debuting in 1993 as Cirque du Soleil’s initial—and still amazing—foray onto the Strip, Mystère is an acrobatic buffet served up on a revolving stage inside a custombuilt theater. Set to a surreal story with exotic, metaphorical characters in elaborate, otherworldly costumes—you’ll meet the Red Bird, the Black Widow, Birds of Prey and La Belle, among many other fanciful creatures—Mystère features distinctive acts.

One aerialist performs within a giant metal cube both on the ground and while airborne. Another flips and twists on a vertical strip of fabric that appears to stretch into infinity. Bungee jumpers bounce and swing as they scrape the ceiling, gymnasts turn a trampoline into an artistic canvas, and Japanese taiko drummers pound out thunderous, infectious rhythms that carry throughout the theater. From sight to sound, Mystère enthralls. –Steve Bornfeld

Season’s Greetings! White Christmas, which starred Bing Crosby and featured some of the most iconic songs of all time—including the title tune and “Blue Skies,” “How Deep Is the Ocean” and “Count Your Blessings”—is the inspiration for the Broadway musical Irving Berlin’s White Christmas. Although the movie was released in 1954, through the decades it has become a holiday tradition for families everywhere, said Sean Montgomery, who plays Crosby’s role of Bob in the national touring company. “There’s great singing and dancing,”
he said. “We follow the same structure as the movie, but this is a full-out Broadway show, which also is fun for the family”. White Christmas tells the story of two Army buddies who become big nightclub stars. After meeting an attractive singing-sister act, they follow the sisters to Vermont, and find that their old Army General owns the inn—and it is in dire straits. The men and the sisters concoct a scheme to make the venue successful, and the outcome is a happy and warmhearted ending. –Penny Levin

Good Fun, Good Times
Pub channels the spirit of Irish originals For years now Rí Rá, known for its Irish food, drink and frolic, has enticed Las Vegas visitors and locals alike to flock to The Shoppes at Mandalay Place. One step into its entrance and guests are magically sent halfway around the globe, landing inside an authentic Irish pub. The large venue—constructed in most part from salvaged material direct from Ireland—includes gorgeous dark woods, brass, Victorian paneling and Kilkenny limestone. Guests can enjoy three distinct bars and various dining spots. For those cuisine-curious, or missing a taste of home, Rí Rá’s extensive menu runs the gamut: a traditional Irish breakfast, bangers and mash and Guinness stew, shepherd’s pie, Irish curry, house-brined corned beef and much more.
42 11.20.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
At Rí Rá, much attention is paid to beverages—Irish whiskey, scotch whisky, American and world whiskies—the menu is impressive. A pint of Guinness is de rigueur, but there are plenty of bottled and draught Irish beers and ciders. With fall in full swing, Rí Rá has six new offerings on its ever-changing list of more than a dozen specialty, hand-crafted cocktails. Three standout stars include the William Magner, a perfect sip for whiskey lovers. It’s a blend of Powers whiskey, Magners cider, cinnamon simple syrup and fresh lemon. Dingle gin, a new gin out of Ireland and new to the Las Vegas market, is used in Rí Rá’s version of a gin and tonic—the Dingle & Tonic with Fever Tree tonic and a cucumber-dill slice. The Jameson Punch, pic-
tured, is a sweet blend of Jameson Irish whiskey, Campari, angostura bitters and fresh lemon and orange juices. And, let’s not forget about the music. Rí Rá keeps the environment happy with authentic Irish music 365 days a year. Every genre of Irish music, from recent to retro tunes, can be found. During November, The Black Donnellys, pictured, one of the Emerald Isle’s most popular traditional/folk rock bands, take the stage. Catch the band riling up the crowds at 8:45 p.m. on Nov. 20, 22-24 and 29 and at 9 p.m. on Nov. 25 and 26. –Kiko Miyasato Mandalay Bay, 9 a.m.-3 a.m.-Sun., 8 a.m.3 a.m. Mon.-Thurs., 8 a.m.-4 a.m. Fri., 9 a.m.4 a.m. Sat. 702.632.7771

Vegas’ Thanksgiving offerings don’t end with the bird You’re in Vegas for Thanksgiving? You could not be luckier! Nearly every restaurant here serves some form of holiday feast, with traditional turkey sharing the spotlight with imaginative fall-inspired dishes. That basic bird comes all ways—free range, organic, brined, butter-basted—just name it and you’ll find it. Here are just a few of the cornucopia of delights you could soon find on your plate; they're

often on a prix fixe menu, for one day only. For old-school turkey and dressing, hit Hash House A Go Go, where the rosemary gravy might deviate from that old-school vibe ($17.99, The Linq, 702.254.4646; Plaza, 702.384.4646).

Aliante, 702.692.7777). DB Brasserie features a butternut squash velouté with spiced crème fraîche, plus venison terrine, organic turkey and pecan pie ($59, The Venetian, 702.430.1235). Triple George Grill twists the soup with kabocha squash instead of butternut, and you can get roasted turkey or herb-roasted prime rib, too. Add a pumpkin martini if you’re feeling that ($55, martini $12, Downtown Grand, 702.384.2761). Turkey not your thing? Ferraro's Italian Restaurant & Wine Bar’s traditional Italian menu means that osso bucco could be yours, along with sweet potato gnocchi with wild forest mushrooms and Gorgonzola cheese sauce. ($59.95, 702.364.5300). Or get a grilled flat-iron steak and shrimp skewer at Alder & Birch, served with peppercorn and citrus buerre blanc sauce, sides and pumpkin cheesecake torte ($45, The Orleans, 702.365.7111). Gilley’s Saloon, Dance Hall & Bar-B-Que is cooking up rack of lamb, crusted with chevre and pecans and stuffed with smoked pesto ($45, Treasure Island, 702. 894.7111). And Table 10 offers up baked brie en croute—rosemary puff pastry and carmelized wild mushrooms and onions add to the decadence ($18, The Venetian, 702.607.6363). Of course, you can get turkey dinner options at any of those restaurants! The desserts are pretty wonderful; some are included, but some you order separately, like the Ultimate Pumpkin Cheesecake at Yardbird Southern Table & Bar. It’s created with cream cheese mousse and pumpkin seed brittle, and is soaked in rum ($10, The Venetian, 702.297.6541). Mon Ami Gabi’s pumpkin bread pudding is served with pecan brown butter ice cream as part of the Thanksgiving menu ($49.95, Paris, 702.944.4224). Yum!

Kristin Morris
Hooters bartender serves up the fun Hello, Ms. October! That’s the month on which you’ll find bartender and cocktail server Kristin Morris in Hooters’ 2017 calendar (she posed for the ’15 and ’16 calendars, too). “I love working for Hooters, so why not represent something you love doing?” said the California native. Morris has worked at Hooters Hotel & Casino for nearly four years, and she says many people, especially women, have misconceptions about the Hooters brand. But it’s a company she couldn’t be happier working for. “We do a lot of charity work, including breast cancer awareness and working with the SPCA,” Morris said. “A lot of the girls put themselves through college. We’re a family establishment. And here, about 95 percent of (employees are)

women... Why wouldn’t you want to work at a place where women rule?” Although Morris has been in the food and beverage industry since she began working, it’s whipping up cocktails and serving on the casino floor at Hooters where she’s been the happiest. “I would work at any other Hooters, but this one is my home.” While guests can dine, drink, game and relax at Hooters, a big bonus here are the gracious and gorgeous women, including Morris, attired in classic orange shorts and white tank tops. “Our motto is, ‘Hooters Makes You Happy’. Definitely, you’ll come in here and be happy,” Morris said. “I know how to put a smile on someone’s face.” –Kiko Miyasato
Sidle up to The Saloon or Pete & Shorty’s, the two bars where you’ll find Morris taking care of her guests. Not sure what to order? Morris suggests trying the property’s signature Hooterades, the resort’s version of Gatorade with alcohol. One of the most popular flavors is the blue raspberry, mixed with Smirnoff raspberry vodka, blue curaçao, agave nectar syrup, lemonade and a splash of Mountain Dew. Hooterades also come in orange and lemon-lime flavors. –KM

Pump It Up Adding volume to your locks is easy
The best of hair days for many of us include some great volume. However, if your hair is feeling flat and less than fabulous, no worries. While your hair is still wet, add in a blowout product from mid-shaft to ends to keep hair shiny and reduce frizz. Add a volumizing spray at the root of your hair to give it lift and style memory. While blow-drying, use a styling brush to direct hair to one side, and then the other, as you follow with a blow-dryer. Once dry, use a large barrel iron and take sections and curl up and away from face. You can clip each curl up to cool if you’re looking for even more oomph. –Sarah Redzikowski

Olivia NewtonJohn’s new music addresses the pain of loss—and getting on with life “I’m waking up this morning grateful for the gift of one more day /the light of hope is dawning / it fills my heart and lifts my fears away / sometimes there’s a miracle just beyond the pain / you can see the rainbow in the rain.” Loss hurts. Love endures. Life remains. As the lady sings: “Live on, live on / brighter skies will come again / cry the tears you cry and then / live on, live on / love is all we leave when we are gone / live on.” Popular music, at its best, is a sublime contradiction: personal and universal. Often it swoons over romance—the heart blossoming, the heart breaking, the heart mending. Yet it isn’t only those relationships that can make the heart weep and the soul sob, and it’s those pains—and joy regained—to which Olivia Newton-John now turns. “There is very little to no music for people going through grief,” says the Aussie chanteuse, whose newly
52 11.20.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
released CD, LIV ON (as in oLIV-ia newtON-John) yields the single “Live On” and provides new material recently integrated into her resident Vegas production, Summer Nights. Along with collaborators Beth Nielsen Chapman and Amy Sky, Newton-John tackles a sensitive issue that touches all of us, the project triggered by the hurt in her own heart. “The songs were inspired, if I can use that word, by the loss of my sister three years ago,” she says of Rona, her sibling who was taken by brain cancer. “We shared so much together, think of all the mountains we have climbed / sorrow, joy and laughter woven through the tapestry of time / even as we’re letting go we will not lose faith.” Loved ones departing our lives may be the most readily identifiable pain the music speaks to—but not the only one. “It’s about moving through and living on, but it doesn’t have to be a person—it can be your pet, it can be your job, it can be any kind of loss we go through as human beings,” NewtonJohn says. “They are songs about the different levels of grief.” Attempting to provide comfort— which, though heartfelt, can often feel futile and inadequate to well-meaning friends—is also addressed in tracks including “My Heart Goes Out To You”
and “Don’t Know What to Say.” At its core, however, the CD aims to be a balm to the soul of those left with a hole in their heart—one that shrinks over time, but forever remains. “One song is ‘Stone in My Pocket,’” Newton-John says. “Because whether it’s a family member or a friend or a pet that’s gone, you always carry around some of that grief with you. You might hear something, or someone might say something and you immediately think of them. Sometimes it’s a boulder in your pocket, sometimes it’s a stone.” “All the precious memories we make / live on, live on / in the hearts of those we touch, all the dreams inside of us /live on, live on / love is all we leave when we are gone / live on, you’ve got to live on.” In Summer Nights, Olivia NewtonJohn revisits her enormous hit catalog in a voice that over the decades has lost not a whit of its ethereal sweetness and emotional intimacy. She’ll ask if you’ve never been mellow. She’ll tell you that she honestly loves you. She’ll get physical with you. And yes, she’ll declare you’re the one that she wants. Now add a new element of inspiration, elegantly expressed. “Live on / in every heart of those we touch / in every dream that means so much / live on.”

The King of Pop’s spirit lives on in Michael Jackson ONE Michael Jackson has been gone for more than seven years, but his presence can be felt in Las Vegas more strongly than ever. Jackson felt at home in Vegas and was a part-time resident, but it’s Mandalay Bay’s resident Cirque du Soleil show Michael Jackson ONE that keeps the King of Pop’s spirit alive on the Strip. That spirit guides cast and crew at every show, and is especially present during special occasions such as this summer’s fourth annual celebration of Jackson’s Aug. 29 birthday at the Michael Jackson ONE Theatre, or the observance this week of the 25th anniversary of Jackson’s 1991 album Dangerous. The weekend birthday celebration attracted hundreds of fans as well as members of the original creative team, including musical designer Kevin Antunes, choreographers Rich and Tone Talauega and writer-director Jamie King. They would all be on hand to witness the unveiling of the pinstripe suit Jackson wore in the video for “Smooth Criminal,” which remains on display in the theater lobby and joined the 10-foot Jackson statue that has stood in Mandalay Bay’s main lobby since July. “When we opened the show three years ago, we had some of Michael’s costumes out in the boutique windows,” said Jerry Nadal, the senior vice president of Cirque’s Shows Division, in a video interview after several ONE cast members pulled a goldcolored drape from the six-sided display

case to reveal the suit. “Now, in the main lobby here, we have the actual ‘Smooth Criminal’ suit that he wore in the video. It’s such an iconic piece of choreography that everybody knows.” The 1930s gangster-style suit, modeled by a mannequin that performs the “anti-gravity lean” Jackson and his dancers execute in the video, was inspired by Fred Astaire in 1953’s The Band Wagon. The suit’s look and concept— a white, banded fedora, blue shirt and folded pocket square, blue armband and spats—would become an important element in ONE, inspiring the Smooth Criminals that battle the MJ Warriors. Costume designer Zaldy Goco designed the suits with UV drawings that are revealed when exposed to blacklight. The HIStory statue that Mandalay Bay guests can see when they check in has intrinsic value to the show as well. Commissioned by Jackson for the cover of his HIStory album and created by American artist Diana Walczak, the 1,500-pound statue was brought on the HIStory tour. The album itself was a double-disc package containing greatest hits and a collection of new songs, many of which are included in Michael Jackson ONE and inspired characters and concepts for the show. “Tabloid Junkie” inspired the creation of Jackson’s antagonists, who wear capes featuring tabloid headlines

in several languages, while “Stranger in Moscow,” “They Don’t Care About Us,” “Scream” and “Smile” provide moving and unforgettable moments in the show. While much of ONE was thematically inspired by the newer material on HIStory, it was Dangerous that largely inspired the stage’s look. Set designer François Séguin wanted to bring the stage to life with the baroque look of the album cover and used moving towers, lights and video projections to evoke that. It doesn’t take a 25th anniversary or a birthday celebration to remind fans why ONE is still a thriller, though. To them, Jackson’s legacy is still alive and ONE testifies to why he was crowned the King of Pop.

Ten shows that give you a chuckle no matter what your age Everyone deserves a good laugh—the kid who’s a fan of magic, the teenager who likes his prop comedy and the adult who prefers racy jokes can all find the perfect show to tickle their funny bone. Here, a look at 10 shows in Las Vegas that deliver the guffaws.
ALL AGES Terry Fator The winner of season two of America’s Got Talent marries singing skills with ventriloquism and impersonations. Terry Fator does it all with a little help from his puppet friends, namely Winston the Impersonating Turtle, his trustiest sidekick. Comedy and songs from Cher to Elvis are a huge part of his show.

sleight-of-hand magic that gets the audience laughing. Note, London has a love of ducks, namely rubber ducks, in this quacktacular show meant for the entire family. (The D, 702.388.2111)
FOR 16 + Carrot Top You just never know what prop comedian Carrot Top will pull out of the 30-plus trunks he lugs onstage. It’s a madcap caper replete with a mop of curly red hair. There might be a game of Operation former Vice
President Dick Cheney played. Pulled out in rapid form, every crazy gadget leads to laughs. (Luxor, 702.262.4400) Gordie Brown This Canadian entertainer does more than just impersonate celebrities. He sings their biggest hits and makes up plenty of his own lyrics in this entertaining show. Big names such as Bruce Springsteen, Prince, Tina Turner and Michael Jackson all make an appearance with their own set of rephrased tunes. (Golden Nugget, Nov. 20 & 22-24, 866.946.5336)

The magician, who appeared on America’s Got Talent, performs with what may be the world’s only magician chihuahua. And, yes, Piff wears a full dragon costume during the entire performance that includes sleight of hand—and cannons.

FOR 21 + Brad Garrett’s Comedy Club The star may not always perform at this comedy club at MGM Grand, but he does pull in star comedians and newcomers alike and sometimes makes a surprise appearance at the shows. Mark this down, though: Brad Garrett officially does take
the stage this week and from Nov. 28-Dec. 4. (MGM Grand, 800.745.3000 Ticketmaster) Andrew Dice Clay Hickory dickory dock … every fan of the Diceman knows exactly where that rowdy rendition of the rhyme goes. Clay tends to pick on his audience, especially bald men, and takes shots at just about everything, women and kids included. Just hold on for the end of the show when he zips through his re-imaginations of children’s tales. (Tropicana, Dec. 25-31, 800.829.9034)

Going Big
Mainstream country music remains a serious boys’ club, but Carrie Underwood (T-Mobile Arena, 888.929.7849) has had no trouble ascending to the top of the genre. Ever since her win on the fourth season of American Idol in 2005, Underwood has been a hitmaker. From early hits “Jesus, Take the Wheel” and “Before He Cheats” to later singles like “Smoke Break,” “Blown Away” and “Cowboy Casanova,”

Underwood has dominated the country charts and crossed over to pop mainstream as well. She may be the biggest female artist in country music, and she’s by far the most successful singer to have come out of American Idol.
