Unforgettable Theater Shows at Casino Venues

Technology has come a long way, from brick-and-mortar gambling hubs to mobile casino games. Nevertheless, are physical casinos still in operation? The answer is yes. No level of sophisticated live casino online technology can replace human interaction. And, another reason that punters go to physical casinos is to enjoy line performances from bands, musicians, and choreographers. Let’s have a look at some popular shows that take place at casino resorts.

“Le Rêve" at Wynn Las Vegas

This show is bigger and brighter than any other you have ever imagined. It took place at the Wynn Las Vegas casino resort and aired for the first time on May 6th, 2005. The show was set in an aquatic theater-in-the-round stage with a volume of over 1 million US gallons, with its furthest depth at 27 feet. In fact, every member of the performance crew had to be scuba-certified.

There were more than 90 performers in the show. At one point, performers dived from heights of over 70 feet. There were also fire effects, coupled with a lot of diving. Franco Dragone is the mastermind behind Le Rêve. Regular people might not know his name. However, there is a probability that you have seen one of his shows. Franco Dragone poured all his creative energy into La Reve.

"Jersey Boys" at Paris Las Vegas (formerly at The Palazzo)

The story of the “Jersey Boys'' rise to fame is iconic. The musical walks its viewers through the story of a band called The Four Seasons. The performance from this group usually contains elements of dancing, comedy, and drama.

Their US$10 million production started running in 2008.  They moved from the Palazzo to Paris Las Vegas in Paris Las Vegas at the end of 2011. John Bentham, the show's lead producer, has been happy about the support that they have received over the years.
