Viva Las Vegas in La Mirada June 10

CHRIS ISAACSON is thrilled to announce that Upright Cabaret’s AMERICAN ICON Series ends another stunning season with VIVA LAS VEGAS - a presentation of personality and pop that honors the flashiest performers of all time: ELVIS, CHER & ELTON JOHN!

Dazzling multi-media sets the stage as special Guest Host JIMMY JAMES sets the slinky mood with impersonations of Vegas' biggest notables like Judy, Bette, Eartha and even Cher. Then, get naughty under the lights as larger-than-life voices scintillate #1 smash hits like Suspicious Minds, Jailhouse Rock, Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves, If I Could Turn Back Time, Benny & The Jets, Your Song and more!

NBC's SMASH star LESLIE ODOM, JR. (“SMASH,” George Lucas' “Red Tails,” Broadway: Leap of Faith) leads an all-star cast including CHAD DORECK (iCarly, “Grease: You're The One That I Want”), ARIELLE JACOBS (Broadway: In The Heights) and recording artist KARISSA NOEL. Led by Music Director Jamieson Trotter with the Upright Cabaret band!

With a lot of fun, flamboyance and just a little luck, VIVA LAS VEGAS no doubt hits the jackpot! This highly acclaimed series is now performing at four venues: in Hollywood at the Catalina Jazz Club, in Palm Springs at the Annenberg Theater, at La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts and Thousand Oaks Scherr Forum Theatre! Mr. Odom, Jr. will be appearing in Thousand Oaks at the Scherr Forum Theatre and in Hollywood at the Catalina Jazz Club only.

L.A.’s famed Upright Cabaret showcases the "next generation" of world-class performers with this NEW series entitled the “American Icon Series"! Now in its third smash year, these unforgettable evenings feature stars from American Idol to Broadway singing the #1 hits of our American Music Icons including Diana Ross, Elvis Presley, Bob Dylan, Elton John, Carole King and more!
