Show Reviews- La Cage Has Returned- Las Vegas-

(Photos by La Cage)

I attended the opening press event for new La Cage show at the Four Queens. There have been many versions of La Cage and now the Four Queens has a winner! The very talented cast includes female impersonators, celebrity look-alikes, tribute artists and dancers.

La Cage is lead by the flamboyant host, comedian, impersonator Jimmy Emerson. Jimmy’s sometimes outrageous yet STAND OUT performance and comedy ties the show together as he introduces each act. Some of the celebrity impressions are Barbra Streisand, Lady Gaga, Carrie Underwood, Madonna, Reba McEntire, Jennifer Lopez, Michael Jackson, Bette Midler, and more. What a mix of musical styles and personalities in one show!

Members of the cast perform with quick intervals into the audience and the interactions are hilarious. After seeing the original La Cage when it opened at the Riviera Hotel and now I can say, “La Cage at the Four Queens has everything you could want in a show”!

Jimmy is known for his interpretations of wicked Wynonna Judd and Tammy Sprynettye. He appeared in movies, television and around the world in his own shows as an actor singer and dancer in addition to his comedy and impressions in the international casts of An evening at La Cage, including the London production.

When I began reviewing shows in Las Vegas in 1980 there were no female impersonator shows but many people were familiar with San Francisco’s Finocchio’s show.

An evening at La Cage appeared in Hollywood in 1982 then Producer Norbert Aleman and the original creator brought the show to Las Vegas in 1985 to the Riviera Hotel. At first La Cage shocked the audience but the production quickly became a hit and lasted 23 years. La Cage became so popular other companies have toured to Atlantic City, Japan, Aruba, Japan, Great Britain, Brazil and Canada.

Cast members are Brent Allen, Ryan Zink, Andrew Ryan, Carlos Rodriguez, Alondro Garibay and Lane Lassiter.

Since the Four Queens Hotel is right in front of the Fremont Experience’s free nightly shows, you can arrange your time to see both shows.

For a fun evening, see La Cage at the Four Queens, 9 pm, Wednesday through Sunday, in the Canyon Club Showroom. For information, call 385-5175. The Four Queens Hotel is located downtown Las Vegas, on Fremont Street. Look at their website for more information about the show. www.lacagefourqueens.com www.fourqueens.com
