A show today needs a touch of Vegas but you don't want it to be like Vegas in the past. The old-style Vegas revue is over. Today you need updated choreography, costumes and music. You can grab attention by glamorizing things with more costume changes and different sets. You don't have to use feathers to retain the glamour from the past.
People see a show, go to dinner and go home.
This city is tougher than Broadway because there is so much entertainment here and because people expect much more. They are exposed to all the grandiose things Vegas is doing. There is more product here now, more choices and there has to be a higher standard of quality. Competition is fierce. You have to make it creative and colorful.
