Went to see Absinthe with one of my closest friends, and honestly, this might be one of the most…read morefun nights I have had in Vegas. From the second it starts, it feels like organized chaos in the best possible way. The crowd work is absolutely ruthless but also hilarious. You spend half the time laughing and the other half quietly hoping you do not make eye contact. Somehow, they walk that perfect line where it is edgy without being awkward. The side acts are insane. Like, how is this even physically possible level talent. Every time you think it cannot get crazier, it does. It is part circus, part comedy show, part did I just witness that moment. And the Gazillionaire is the perfect ringmaster for it all, completely unhinged in the most controlled way possible. He keeps everything moving, keeps the crowd on edge, and somehow makes chaos feel like it is exactly on schedule. Going with a close friend made it even better. There is something about sharing those did that really just happen looks the whole night that makes it stick. If you are in Vegas and want something that is actually memorable and not just expensive for no reason, this is it. Easily one of the best shows on the Strip.

This was a great and fun show!

There's amazing acrobatic performances and the hour and a half flew by fast. I loved the intimate tent setting and no seat is a bad seat. The chairs are, however, uncomfortable and seated very closely together. There are bar waitresses who walk around and can also take your drink order, but we had already bought drinks from the outside bar to bring inside. The tent is located by Hell's Kitchen and Caesar's Palace Valet.

From the crowds to the price point, I figured yeah this show's going to blow Awakening out of the park. The acrobatics? Absolutely The technology? Oh for sure It's like comparing apple and oranges but the orange is a little dry (Awakening) - good but not as good as the apple. Now here's why O pissed me off. I did my due diligence and researched whether or not photography was ok. https://www.cirquedusoleil.com/usa/las-vegas/o/buy-tickets The website stated that pocket sized cameras and cellphones were ok. Upon arrival, I double checked with the staff, "IS CELLPHONE PHOTOGRAPHY DURING THE SHOW OK?" Both staff said "Yes, just no video and no flash." Tell me why both of these staffs were the ones going around telling people to put their devices away during the show even though many people were only taking pictures? :| (I will say, once I saw they started picking on people about photography at the very beginning, I didn't bother trying to take pics myself - so yay didn't get publicly shamed LMAO) The show itself was incredible but the staff and their terrible communication and then shining their lights and calling out guests for taking photos was most definitely not nice in any way. I think it's ridiculous to say "We encourage photos" on the website and then have their staff go and pick on rule following show attendees. Organizers need to make up their minds on the photo policy and train their staff accordingly.

The only reason that this is getting 3 stars is because if you're not at one of the few cocktail…read moretables in the very front, you're not going to be able to see well, EVEN IN THE FRONT ROW. I've seen this show twice, once opening night and then again in October 2023. I was in the first row stage left the first time, and the second row dead center the second time. The first time my view was blocked by a woman with very curly, poofy hair. The second time my view was blocked by everyone seated at the cocktail tables. The Duomo is a horrible venue because the seats are neither staggered nor graduated like stadium seating. The stage isn't high enough above the seating to give everyone a good view. I've seen X Country at Harrah's, Fantasy at Luxor, and Red Velvet Burlesque at Notoriety downtown - all of them have different seating and stage configurations for this sort of show, but you can actually see the performers. This show needs a different venue. They have Julia Flypole doing arial hoop work but it's like a 7 or 8 foot ceiling from the stage to the top. She also performs in Red Velvet Burlesque and her routine is from a silk that is easily two stories long. It's just not the same effect doing acrobatics and arial pole in such a short room. The show is a mix of singing and burlesque dancing set to rock-esque type music. There is no nudity in this show. Everyone has pasties on in addition to bra tops, unlike other showgirl burlesque shows. While it's obviously 18+ because it's burlesque, nothing is too risque, except the bathtub dance is a bit over the top raunchy for my taste. The dancing is good. The costuming is good. The singer actually has a good voice. The only problem is the venue is garbage and not a good fit for this show. There is limited audience participation in this show. Photos without flash are allowed.

The ladies are beautiful and talented, and show an excellent fluid combination of dance, choreography, music, singing, costumes, stage props, and different specialty acts. The next scheduled shows at The Composers Room are 11 & 25 May and 10 & 24 June 2024 (for best seats recommend you purchase P1 Golden Circle seats for only $40 which is 1st front row). Highly recommend that you see this energetic, intriguing, sexy and classy show (you will love it)!

As soon as we sat down we became immediately chilled. The A/C was blowing full force from the vents in the wall behind us! Brrrr! It became so intolerable that my hubby mentioned our discomfort to one of the ushers. She kindly sat us closer to the stage on a nice cushioned bench. I couldn't believe that they made such nice accommodations for us! Mat Franco is very engaging and very family oriented. We enjoyed his magic show, which is family friendly. You could hear the kids let out oooohs and aaaahs throughout the show. We highly recommend this very entertaining show.

He currently resides in the LINQ where he performs in the Mat Franco Theater. Our team did an offsite in Vegas and for our social outing, all went to see the Mat Franco show. He's the perfect blend of humor, charm, and magical performance to keep you mesmerized, entertained, and laughing your head off for all 90mins of his show. Along with several pre-planned tricks, he also performs improvisation involving the crowd; so no two shows are exactly alike. If you're looking for a great magical act in Vegas, or just a great show to watch, I HIGHLY recommend coming to see Mat Franco!

As MOH, I planned the party and spent a lottt of time going through reviews on Yelp and Reddit bc there was a lot of pressure to find the best option and decide for the group. Many reviews of the bigger shows said the performers had been doing it for so long that they looked like they were just going through the motions.. that the acts were unimpressive.. that the theater was so big you could only see the tricks on a screen, or that it was overpriced. After all my research, I'm SO glad I decided on Frederic -- the bride said this magic show was her favorite part of the trip!! (and we went to Tao dayclub the day before lol) :) I love that it was in a small, intimate theater, so that you were up close no matter where you sat. And there was SO much audience interaction -- our bride even caught a frisbee and got to go on stage -- which was fun and helped make it even more special for her. The mentalism was such a cool departure from traditional physical magic tricks -- we all loved it and had many *gasp* moments. We even got to meet Frederic after, and he performed more mentalism up close, which was cool. HIGHLY recommend this show!! (Also, it was $30/ticket, which is a price you cannot beat in Vegas)

I was pleasantly surprised by how good the food tasted. Legitimately if their food was served at a restaurant, the restaurant would do well strictly off how good the food tastes. The cocktails were also really good. I ordered the Cool Down Lap, Mule in the Paddock, and Crodino. The Cool Down Lap was a little watered down. The Mule in the Paddock, and Crodino were really good and I would recommend to anyone looking for a good n/a cocktail. The service was good throughout my experience.

Went to 3rd floor bar, lots of employees visible and quite a few customers playing the arcade racing games. Just a few customers eating. Took a while after I approached the bar and looked at the menus for an employee to greet me. The locals deal is half off most of the menu and drinks except specialty cocktails. I had a glass of prosecco, 6 taco flight and mini doughnuts. Tacos were barely warm. I don't know how a not busy kitchen can't serve the food hot. After I started eating them I noticed 1 or 2 ingredients were missing from each. The birria was most noticeably missing the BBQ sauce/aioli. The Tandoori chicken tacos were ok but needed the missing pickles/pickled onions, same with the mushroom tacos. There was plenty of meat and mushrooms on the tacos for the regular price of $22. I noticed Al Mancini, a local food reviewer was there. I guess they were only concerned about his food. I did tell one of the servers at the bar about the missing ingredients. The mini doughnuts were ok. When I first got the bill it was wrong (extra item added). On the second bill the tacos were taken off. I appreciated that but hadn't asked. I told the server to thank the manager. Perhaps the next meal will be better, it's unlikely I'll return tho. It may be worth it to go for food with the half price deal, if you're at Caesars and need to eat.

Some jokes are very sexual and dirty. It was very fun!! It might be not the same reaction to the very religious ppl though...

Date of visit: January 2, 2026…read more Absinthe is one of my favorite shows on The Strip, so I was really excited to give the Atomic Saloon Show a try, though I will admit the poster does not really prepare you for this show. Absinthe's poster really gives you a better idea of what you are going to see, whereas Atomic Saloon's poster looks more akin to a unisex Thunder Down Under when it's really more R-rated Hee Haw. The loose story involves a brothel and a host of characters that interact with the facility and its matriarch but the comedy is really where it's at. From the Irish dancers with questionable teeth (when the bread started flying I could not stop laughing!) to the various aerial feats displayed, Atomic Saloon has a little bit of everything though it's not for the faint of heart--several people in our section left a few minutes into the show. As much fun as we had, the seats on the second floor are not great and you end up missing some of the action. Even more disappointing was that there were quite a few empty seats on the main level, and it would have made for an even better show if we had been given the opportunity to move forward like we did at OPM, another Spiegelworld show that used to run at Cosmopolitan.

There is nothing in town that compares to it, when it comes to value and level of performance, it is an incredible production where the theatre is not too big, but the stage is semicircular with 3D background on large screen, and the projections are so well incorporated into acts, so it gives the impression that it is one large theatre. I love the closeness to the performers, everything happening right in front of your very eyes... It is so much fun for children and adults! Performers are so adorable, acts changing quickly, there is even water on the stage! What an incredible production of Titanic story; gives me chills every time I see it! This one show represents the good old Vegas variety show and brings some nostalgia ... Do not miss it!

The stunts were really cool too. Had a nice variety of acts, production was decent. The only reason it got a 3 star was because the intermission guy, this goofy guy trope. Who just takes it over the top, which makes it seem cringey. If they replace him, or his character I would bump up my rating. Overall, it was good show, worth a watch, just don't pay full price!
