BIG HISTORY WITH THIS THEME HERE AND ELSEWHERE....THE CURRENT PRODUCTION AT THE PLAZA DOWNTOWN LAS VEGAS ......7 PM DAILY....702 946 8934....WWW.PLAZAHOTELCSINO.COM..........WORTH A TRY !
WE CAUGHT ONE OF THE PREVUES AND THERE WERE PLUSES AND MINUSES....WE ENJOYED IT AND THE BIG THING WAS THE COMMITTMENT TO IMPROVE....TO STAY AND TO MAKE IT BETTER !
PRODUCER MATTHEW RESLER TOLD ME HIS TEAM IS COMMITTED TO MAKE THIS A SUCCESS AND THAT HIS TEAM IS IN IT FOR THE LONG HAUL....THEY HAVE A SIX MONTH COMMITTMENT AT A VENUE FAMOUS FOR "NUDES ON ICE" (WHICH I LIKED)....DINNER THEATRES...(WHICH I LIKED)...ROCK AND ROLL THEMES WITH DEL SHANNON...LOU CHRISTIE...AND FABIAN (WHICH I LIKED)....THE RAT PACK (WHICH I LIKED) AND A RECENT TWO WEEK MAGIC SHOW WITH TERRIBLE PRODUCTION (WHICH I LIKED)!
I READ PEOPLE REAL WELL AND I LIKED RESLER....HIS OPEN MIND AND WILLINGNESS TO LISTEN AND HIS PLAN TO CHARGE AHEAD WITH IMPROVEMENT THE THEME. I AM ANXIOUS TO SEE THE CHANGES AND PROGRESS HERE IN THE NEXT FEW MONTHS.
A TRIED AND TRUE THEME....MUSIC...SEX...PRODUCTION WITH A 17 MEMBER CAST...MOST PRETTY GOOD AND LIKE EVERY ACTOR IN LAS VEGAS...WORKING HARD AT IT. THE PLAY FROM 1978 BROADWAY....TO THE MOVIE WITH DOLLY PARTON AND BURT REYNOLDS...TO PRODUCTIONS HERE AT THE DESERT INN .... AT THE STARBRIGHT THEATRE IN SUMMERLIN AND ONE PLANNED WITH TAMMY WYNETTE (SHORTLY BEFORE HER DEATH) CARRIES A POPULAR HOOK WITH ITS SEX AND FLAIR. MEMORABLE FOR ME WAS THE CHARLES DURNING SONG IN THE MOVIE WHICH WENT A LITTLE FAST ON MY PREVIEW NIGHT.
THE SHOW STARTED ON TIME WITH ITS VIDEO INTRO....AS GOOD AS THE TIMING WAS THE SEATING OF PATRONS ON THIS NIGHT WAS NOT GOOD...THERE WERE PRODUCTION ISSUES....SOUND AND LIGHTING ISSUES WHICH THE TEAM IS AWARE OF AND WORKING ON....THE BAR HERE IN LAS VEGAS PRODUCTIONS IS HIGH AND THAT IS GOOD THING....AIM HIGH...STAY HIGH AND GET BETTER.
MY PARTNER WAS UNFAMILIAR WITH THE PRODUCTION AND REALLY LIKED IT....I DID TOO WHILE TAKING NOTE OF FLAWS IN THE PRODUCTION.
I LIKED THE GUYS DANCE NUMBER (I AM PARTIAL TO THE DANCE) AND THE CAST WAS PRETTY SOLID ESPECIALLY ON TOP WITH JACQUELYN HOLLAND AS MISS MONA AND WITH THE DOUBLE CAST SHERIFF (JAY JOSEPH OR RON SMITH).....THE GIRLS SOME HOW DID NOT SEEM PERFECT AND I AM ANXIOUS TO SEE IF CHANGES MAYBE MADE....I DID HAVE A COUPLE OF FAVORITES !
THE PLAZA THEATRE IN THE HEART OF LAS VEGAS IS SUPER CONVENIENT LOCATION AND OFFERS THE CORRECT VENUE FOR THEATRE....THIS PRODUCTION... THIS WORK IN PROGRESS DESERVES A LOOK AND I AM GOING TO GIVE IT ANOTHER ONE SOON !
