Las Vegas has an undeniable magnetic attraction and nobody
is exempt. Even the world’s most iconic and influential performers go there to
play, party and perform … and The Barnyard Theatre at Gateway celebrates these
music legends in one action-packed show, Viva
Las Vegas!
Opening on October 13, this glittering new production is set
to run through the festive season.
A spectacular metropolis in the Nevada desert, Las Vegas is
the unlikely entertainment capital of the world. It has evolved to become an
unspoken rite of passage for the world’s most acclaimed performers to make the
pilgrim there, like Elvis who had 837 consecutive sellout from 1969 four years
after starring in the iconic film Viva
Las Vegas.
The show represents divas such as Celine Dion, Cher, Britney
Spears, Dianna Ross and Jennifer Lopez; sex symbols such as Tom Jones and Rod
Stewart; rockers such as ZZ Top and Santana; icons such as Elvis Presley, Elton
John and Michael Jackson; and crooners such as Dean Martin and Michael Bublé.
There are also some surprise tributes to Tony Bennett, Lady Gaga, Boys II Men,
and ol’ blue eyes himself, Frank Sinatra.
Songs included in this party production include Get The Party Started, I’m Coming Out, Sex
Bomb, Let’s Get Loud, The Lady Is A Tramp, Power Of Love, Beat It, Burning Love
and Uptown Funk.
Whether it be a staff function, family outing or festive
season celebration, the glitz and glamour of Vegas provides the perfect
backdrop to dress up and let your hair down! To accommodate festive season
revelry, additional lunch time shows (starting at 13h30) have been added on the
following dates - November, 27 and December 3 4, 10 and 11.
The Barnyard Theatre at Gateway will again be staging their
very popular Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve shows. The Christmas Eve show
will take place on December 24, so will be at the normal ticket price of R155
per person. The New Year’s Eve show will start at 21h00, will feature an extra
