First of all An Evening at La Cage is a very entertaining way to spend a couple of hours in Vegas. The performers are energetic, they give a great effort, and look like they are having fun. Yes, it is all lip synched, if you don't like that, you won't like this show. Lip synching like anything else is a skill, and some of the performers are better at it than others. The only time it really bothered me was with one specific performer who was not so good at it, at became very obvious and embarassing.
The "host" of the show is impersonating Joan Rivers, but really, Joan Rivers can only wish she looked half as good as this one. She (he) was very funny, and told some dirty jokes to loosen up the crowd. He was live, not lip-synched and really was good working the crowd.

Now the negative...
We paid for "premium" seating which meant close to the stage, and when we picked up our tickets the man said the premium seats also meant we don't have to wait in line. Great, so we took our time getting to the theatre. When we get there, we find two lines, one for regular seats the other for premium seats. There are already 20 people in line for the premium seats. When we ask someone about this they reply "this is how we do it" and are quite rude about it. After about 30 minutes standing in line (listening to a lot of other people with the same complaint) they finally let us in. In the "VIP" section there are 20-30 seats along the aisles (the best seats in the house) that have "reserved" signs on them. I assume these are for the people who tip the staff and the time share sufferers. We overhear many people ask about those seats only to hear "they are reserved" Well, guess what? No one showed up to sit there , and they didn't let people move. So picture a very small theatre, and the best 20-30 seats in the house are empty. Way to go guys! Bet that made the performers feel great!

The show is very good, but they really need to move it to a better casino with a competent staff, not a dump like the Riviera.

First of all you have to get your tickets at the GIANT Coke stand on the strip the day of the show. ..their half-price!! Then you must upgrade to preferred seating. After that enjoy the show!! Liza, celine, Britney,...they were all Great and Rick, the host is a Blast!! (S)he changes into different elegant gowns, jewelry and all between each person's act. Plus, (S)he is hilarious!! We've reccomended this to friends since we've gotten back and they're planning on going, too.

Being appreciaters, if not lovers, of drag shows, my two girlfriends and I thought this would be a fun way to start our first night in Vegas--WRONG! The "theatre" was a cross between a rundown 80's strip club replete with zebra chair coverings and a rundown 80's skating rink replete with zigzag carpetting and terrible lighting. While the impersonators were mildly entertaining--Celine Dion stands out in my mind--overall, I have seen better shows in Florida. The Joan Rivers narrator was ok--somewhat funny but predictably so. I think this show would've been much better if the "ladies" actually sang the songs rather than lip-synched.

I took friends to the La Cage show at the Riviera. I was told by the box office that the maitre'd "ran" the room and that all tickets were the same price. In other words if you take care of him, he'll take care of you. I was also told to be at the theatre at least one hour prior to the start of the show in order to secure good seats. Many of us were early and we were seated in a holding room in the order that we arrived. Then when the room had lines of people winding all the way around it, they moved certain people into the foyer and the rest of us up against a wall. It was like herding cattle. Then to make matters worse all of the people who had been to see a "condominium presentation" were escorted into the very front seats as they arrived 45 minutes after the rest of us. They were also comped. Quite frankly this wasn't fair because the only people who could be invited to tour the condiminiums had to be married. Therefore because I am single, I had no chance to even get a seat close to the stage and I was a paying customer. I was not the only person who was upset about the archaic method of seating people at this show. We were told that this is the way that they do it all over town when we complained....yet another false statement. Some people were so angry that they asked for their money back and never stayed for the show.
