According to the Las Vegas Sun, "Steve Wynn's Showstoppers has abruptly set a closing date of Sept. 30.

A Wynn Las Vegas spokeswoman confirmed tonight that the production is to close on that date. The cast and crew were notified after tonight's show at Encore Theater."

Steve Wynn's ShowStoppers at Wynn Las Vegas, named "Best Musical Production Show" by the Southern Nevada Concierge Association, recently unveiled two new numbers as part of the musical repertoire. Conceived and written by Steve Wynn, ShowStoppers was designed to evolve over time and celebrate the many of the lasting musical theater anthems including numbers from A Chorus Line, Cabaret, Chicago, Gypsy and more.

The newly added numbers include You're The One That I Want from the film adaptation of the musical Grease. Written by John Farrar for the 1978 film, it is one the best-selling singles of all time. Performers Andrew Ragone and Nicole Kaplan will grace the stage as the iconic characters Sandy and Danny in this upbeat rendition of a musical classic.

In addition, Rachel Tyler will perform a rendition of the fan favorite, New York, New York. Originally recorded by Liza Minelli in Martin Scorsese's quintessential 1977 film and later performed by Frank Sinatra, it remains one of the most celebrated songs about New York City.

ShowStoppers performs Monday through Thursday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and Friday at 8:00 p.m. No performances on Sunday. All guests must be five or older; children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
