What Las Vegas Shows Feature Elvis These Days?

What Las Vegas stage shows have an Elvis impersonator these days?

Funny you should ask.

Las Vegas Review-Journal entertainment columnist John Katsilometes wrote a column about just that a month ago, in which he concluded, "The King’s day of reckoning has arrived in Las Vegas."

Kats went on to report that the show All Shook Up at the V Theater at the Miracle Mile Shops had closed, leaving Las Vegas devoid of Elvis impersonator shows for the first time since 1978, only a year after the death of Presley. "There is no longer any Elvis Presley tribute on the Strip and, at the moment, none at all anywhere in the city."

Last we checked, Big Elvis, a.k.a. Pete Vallee, still plays the Harrah's Piano Bar Thursday and Friday afternoons. And we understand an Elvis impersonator performs in the karaoke room at Ellis Island on Wednesday nights. But while All Shook Up was between theaters, that was it.

Since then, All Shook Up, the Elvis tribute show, resurfaced at the theater at Alexis Park. So even though Katsilometes quoted a producer as saying, "The appetite for large-scale Presley shows has been waning for years; Elvis just isn’t a big show anymore,” you can still see an entire Las Vegas stage production dedicated to the King of Rock 'n' Roll.

Big Elvis!!!

Mr. Pete Vallee has a great voice, and is very entertaining, and though not a big production show, it's still well worth it to go see ans hear him perform.

Elvis has just about left the building...

The Legends in Concert show has a large cast of celebrity impersonators that performs at several locations across the US. This includes many Elvis impersonators. But for now their Vegas location (Tropicana resort) is doing a Divas version of the show with female performers only, no Elvis.

Demographics

The number of people who even remember Elvis is slowly declining. While Vegas has always been a repository for acts whose time has gone, and in general, being dead is no handicap for a Vegas performer, the Elvis string might be played out.

Holographic Elvis

I predict a holographic show of Elvis will come out - big and better than ever. And, I look forward to a Holographic Jim Morrison and the Doors.  Smiles..

Hope it survives

20 years ago "Elvis" performed the ceremony to renew our vows on our 25th anniversary. We were hoping to do it again for our 50th, but that's still 5 years away.
